A short M3

[Les Tilly]

Hi Guys Been so long since I posted an image well last night cleared up for me to try out my Newest arrival but the wind picked up pretty Bad so I had to cut it short also had alot of noise as the outside temp was around 80 degrees but very happy with what I got

This is 1hr x 3 min Subs ISO 400

Scope Tak FSQ106N

Camera Canon40D

Guided with SV70ED and DSI PRO II

G11 mount

Also included is the new setup

Thanks Les

Thats a great looking set up Les that one heck of scope . I bet you will be itching to use that. Nice image Les although I can see circular bands on the image centred on the bottom right.

Regards

the first images I did with the Free software Deepsky stacker and had alot of Black holes in the images

This is the same image using Images plus to calibrate and stack I think it came out better I may be over stretching as this is only 1 hr and needs alot more tme I am also using a Astronomik CLS filter instead of my Hutech Filter so a little different in the color Balance between filters just another learning curve to get over

Thanks Les

[Beyond_Vision]

Thats sorted it Les, The colour balance looks good

Thanks Kevin,

I think for 1 hr it came out very nice and the FSQ gives me nice tight stars and Zero Blue Halo's like the SV 102 did
