NGC 6992

[Jpr78]

This is my first attempt at integrating narrowband images. I started with CMOS a couple of months ago and was almost immediately turned off by it my first night out trying to get focus and be able to get something decent and useable. I am glad I stuck with it. To me it feels like an art form incorporating patience, finesse and hard work in the end.

Kit - Skywatcher 80ED Pro

Subs - 20 x 240s Ha @ -15C

             20 x 240s SII @ -15C

Stacked and processed in PI with some finishing touches in PS. I will add OIII data to this image at a later date.

Excellent effort, I really like the pale bronze colour.

Be even better with the Oiii.

Finally got around to getting the OIII. I also captured some more SII. Total integration time 4.9 hours.
