Tonights Veil TIFF files

[Stu Wilson]

Attached are the 2 TIFF files ive made tonight of the Veil Nebula if anyone wants to try and process them and see what you can get out of these.

Ive had a quick try and disappointed myself so far so its off to bed.

The 1st file is 19 x 8 minute subs stacked with Bias

The 2nd file is the 19 x 8 min subs stacked with Darks, Lights, Flats, Dark Flats and Bias

All from my QHY8L cooled at -24 tonight.

Cheers

Look forward to someone getting a result

Looks nice.

Just before I gave up for the night I'd over stretched it to bits lol.

Which of my TIF files did you use Carole? I'm not sure whether it makes alot of difference using darks flats etc compared to only using bias frames stacked with the subs?

[Stu Wilson]

Sorry just realised what you'd typed.

It is early and I'm at work lol

I find trying to process images without flats an almost impossible task due to the vignetting, so YES it does make a difference.

Good start. Needs more data. Longer subs? I done 60 x 10 minute subs with my Canon back in August. After about 6 hours worth you really start to see the benefits. When you see the faint wispy bits in detail it's a great feeling!

Finally got round to trying to process my file and this is my attempt...…….

Looking good, nice star colour.

Here's my version. I used the second tif file (calibrated)

As usual, played with your data in PixInsight:

Photometric Colour Calibration using a sun-like star (G2V star) as reference.

Arcsinh stretch to push the colour.

Thanks for sharing the data.
