NGC 281 The Pacman Nebula

Recommended Posts

With dark, clear skies at 8,050' (2453m) I decided to put a few hours in on this target, the Pacman Nebula, NGC281.

90 Minutes of Ha and 90 Minutes of OIII using 3-minute exposures.
Explore Scientific ED127mm, ASI1600mm cooled camera and CGX mount.
Phd2 guiding, SharpCapPro capture software, Astro Pixel Processor for processing.

That’s a very nice image!  I image at 215m which is considered high for here 😂

A nice take on the pacman nebula..very subtle processing, I like it

Well done 

Paul

Thanks Paul. I'm going to give processing a go again and try to bring out a bit of the central blue color. I know the data is there since I captured 90 minutes of OIII.
