roundycat Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 Hi all, seems like the first picture went ok, here's another, The Seagull nebula somewhere near sirius. This one has gone onto the 'must do better' list as I think I have over done the processing.Dennis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MartinB Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 Don't listen to Roger, he hasn't got any cones in his retina!! A great image but looks a bit pushed compared to the cone and rosette images. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveL Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 Thats a great image, especially as the target is actually very low in the sky! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roundycat Posted December 15, 2008 Author Share Posted December 15, 2008 ok, ok, the secret's out. Here is the mono version, Ha only 140m FSQ and Artemis 11002.Dennis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barkis Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 Looks Image looks very rich, but very nice too.I believe it is also known as Gum-1 Emission neb too. I only know because I was looking at an Image of it by Richard Crisp in Ha. There's enough nebulous targets in Monoceros, to keep one occupied for Months + I like the Mono version better. It is very like Crisp's, except his is a large image, taking in most of the head section top right. Ron. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Psychobilly Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 Another stunning few images... think our Rog is stuck in a time warp - the Color era has passed him by ... either that or he thinks the license is cheaper... Only kidding Rog... Might have to have a go at this mono marlraky myself if the only clear nights ar going to be LP'd (luna polluted) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 Wow, I cant even see this from where I live.Superb images. Please stop posting now as you make the rest of us look bad Just joking of course.This is a rare occasion where I prefer the mono version, but only against that colour where it does seem to be a little pushed. In general I prefer the colour pics, as the mono are only half the story, (Actually, only 1/4 of the story I suppose), and as those colours are there, what a shame not to capture them with the only possible way we can ever see them as they truly are.I would love to have been there when the very first colour plate of an astrophotograph was developed, they must have been blown away by the colours!Any chance you could share the exposure details? You must be a fair bit further south than me I should have thought to get an image that good on such a low object?CheersTJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roundycat Posted December 15, 2008 Author Share Posted December 15, 2008 I'm at 52N which translates as near Harwich, Essex but I overlook a large bay and the North Sea so my horizon is pretty low. The picture was taken with the Tak FSQ 106 at f5 and the Artemis 11002. I seem to recall about 17 8m subs combined in Maxim and slightly massaged in PS. Guiding by Atik on a ZS80 and AP1200.Dennis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
