MartinB Posted November 24, 2006 Share Posted November 24, 2006 Surprise break in the clouds tonight so made a start on M33. Nextar 8" with fastar and SXV H9. Managed about 30 x1 min lum subs before the clouds rolled in. Am getting really fed up with the gradients generated by the short f/l fastar set up. I have cropped the image to help get around these which is a shame really. All the same, I'm quite pleased with the way it has come out considering the short exposure time (fastar does have some benefits). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaptain Klevtsov Posted November 24, 2006 Share Posted November 24, 2006 Very nice Rog.What about a bit of "distributed astrophotography"? We all aim at the same thing doing R,G, B or Lum. , send 'em all to Rog. and sell the results then retire?Captain Chaos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MartinB Posted November 24, 2006 Author Share Posted November 24, 2006 Nice one Rog but I'm still going to get my own! Especially want to pick up some Ha regions. Perhaps we should have an SGL processing collaborative. Anyone got any M31 colour data! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
