Rodd Posted November 24, 2018 Share Posted November 24, 2018 I have been tinkering with the central feature of a larger image of the heart Nebula, trying to pull out as much detail as possible. I think this is about as far as I dare go. I have improved on the image as a whole--but the difference probably does not warrant posting. My Astrobin page has the image if any one cares to see. But I spent extra tile with this central feature. This probably would not warrant posting either--except it was shot at a focal length of 318mm (FSQ 106 with .6x reducer). I shot this same feature at 1,000mm and the difference is not what one would expect (in fact the 318mm crop is better IMO--but that is in great part due to processing I think). Still. A decent, if not exemplary, David and Goliath story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Different camera too, though, so I guess its hard to say. Maybe the conditions could not support the resolution. Rodd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
