ODK12 First Light

[DaveS]

Finally I have something like First Light with the ODK12. This is just 6 x 600 sec subs Luminance with the Moravian G3 16200 and Chroma filters. Sigma Add stacking in AstroArt 7 followed by a slight crop to get rid of dither edges, Gradient Reduction (As the moon was starting to interfere), DDP and Unsharp Mask.

Calibration was with Darks and Flats only as I had neglected to do Dark Flats *slapped wrist*.

Reduced 50% for upload and JPEG. Yes it's a bit noisy, and I think I may have focus issues.

C&C welcome as usual.

And I have now edited my sig to acknowledge that I have achieved "First "Light".

Well done Dave, as you may know I love diffraction spikes. Keep the images coming.

Oh I will, just as soon as these blasted clouds go away.
