LRGB M42 (half-baked)

[tooth_dr]

I've been trying now for a while to get a few minutes of colour data for the other half of this, but it's not happening, so here it is as it stands.  I do have shorter data for the core but it's a hell of task doing this in LRGB.  Maybe when I get more data I'll spend a day at it.

LRGB of M42, consisting of two panels

Left panel LRGB = 84/10/10/10 minutes

Right panel L = 84 minutes

Total time = 3 hours 18 minutes

 

Even APP struggled with this, ended up combining in ICE, and then back to PS.

Not the best out there, but it's always nice to get a bit of brown dust in the background.

 

 

All the best

Adam.

Thanks. That’s literally all the data, no colour for the other half and the way the weathers looking it’s gonna be the end of 2020 before I get it.

Oh dear that really is half baked.  Ha ha.  Rather interesting comparison though.

Nice brown dust.

You are not kidding! 
it has been something I have been seriously considering this year! 

Having said that I like the comparison, and look forward to its completion,  (hopefully this year?!) I understand your frustration!

thanks for sharing

Different that is for sure, I rather like it. Did this last night but the result was poor, I don't know if it is the spacing still not exact with the Borg or just awful guiding, the weather was 21c yesterday and it dropped away very quickly once dark.

The alternative to a OSC is a tri band filter with your mono camera.

Edit maybe the tri/duo band filters are for OSC , not sure

Ooh, that´s looking nice! And I can seriously feel the urge to get that last RGB data That is the pain of mosaics - waiting for the final data for that last panel.
