NGC 281 The Pacman Nebula

[mackiedlm]

Another image taken with the L-eNhance filter and processed 2 ways

This was only about 3.5 hours before clouds came in and it could definately use more integration time.

70 x 180s, SW 80ED, ASI2600MC, L-eNhance. Moon was around 90%

First a regular processing of the OSC data

Then processed as HOO

 

C&C Welcome.

V nice for 3.5hrs 👍🏾  Between the two, I prefer the OSC - more texture in the inner core.  The HOO almost seems too bright.

I've got some unprocessed data on Pacman taken with an ASI178MMcool but with a Baader UHC filter as it seems to have a dual-band style transmission curve.  Will be curious to see how it compares to the L-enhance (the L-e should be better & tighter band-pass, but by how much should be interesting to see)
