The "Croissant" in false RGB

[paulobao]

Hi,

It smells better, "Le Croissant" . I'm not french anyway, I'm from portugal.

My new project still testing the coke can (C9.25) with temperature around 29ºC at midnight here where I'm at Muxagata, V.N. FozCôa.

Made this one with Ha and OIII only (16x 10 min of each at -10ºC with the QSI532WS-M1 at bin 2x2).

Le Croissant aka NGC6888 in false colour (still in progress...)

Version 1

Version 2

And a Gif showing the OIII coat of gas:

Cheers from Portugal

You can just see the 'coat of gas' with out the OIII filter, but what a difference it makes... Nice work, I be you are really pleased with this one, and you have every right to be... Absolutly Stunning

Excellent image Paulo.

A great capture of the OIII, it makes it look very organic.

Cheers

Fantastic! I love the gif, it's nice to compare it with and without OIII so easily. Kinda reminds me of plastic wrap

Hi Paulo,

Great picture, especially in the O111 layer for me. What I have never seen before is structure in that O111 patch on the upper left edge of the nebula in your version. On most, including a recent one, all you usually see is a strange dark flat patch but yours has wispy detail.

I would like get a little more signal but it will be impossible for the next 10 days due to family vacations!

Best regards,

paulo
