rikyuu Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 Here's my attempt at M82 last night. Throught I'd give it a go as it's getting a little low in the sky and is already in some skyglow in the north, however the CLS filter does a fantastic job.This is 26x 3 and 4 min subs, ISO800C8 F/10, 300d, with my best attempt at processing in PS, which is tricky as it's easy to blow out the core.I remember first looking at this last year through my 10" dobs and just seeing it with averted vision as a faint smudge. It's so nice to be able to capture it in glorious technicolour!Thanks for looking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coco Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 That's a tough image to get with an F10 scope & it is really a mid summer target.Still you pulled that off really well... I'm not going to show you my attempt with a 300mm lens The detail/ colour looks great.. nice round stars also...Thanks for sharing..Guy... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MartinB Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 The F10 isn't the tricky bit because it's a bright target but 2000mm focal length is very tough. That's a great result Rik. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
