1 hour under full moon

Hi Star people!

I have been adjusting Tilt and spacing in my imaging train since adding the recently purchased Atik 383 and deciding to try my Atik 314l+ as a guide camera!
 

It was clear last night but a full moon was washing out the sky so I thought I’d test the camera on the bright M27 nebula 

15x 2 min (30min) Ha and Oiii bin 2x2 at about 2000fl with the 12” Meade and 6.3fr/ff

then 20 min processing (quick and dirty)

Not going to win any awards! It’s nothing special but it’s fun to see what you can do in an hour under challenging conditions! 
 

Thanks for looking!

Lovely image, starting to see some of the outer shell showing too.

Thanks for the comment 

there is a bit more of the shell in the data but I processed it really quickly and was a bit aggressive with noise reduction due to the short integration times, loosing some of the faintest outer shell in favour of a cleaner overall look.
Not my preferred way of processing but I just wanted something “clean” to show for an hours work

thanks

Bryan 😊
