NGC 2655 SN2011b more subs added

[Ibbo!]

After a quick process at 4am I decided to let the mount and software do its thing and have added a few more subs to my image posted earlier,which came out a bit dark again hopefully this is better as I've processed them a bit on the lighter side on my PC

Let me now if it is better please

Ths time 27 x 300 s subs with the Tak FS102 SX9h

Below I took a couple of subs of the galaxy at the side of NGC 2655 by mistake

that one is NGC2715

Cheers

Beautiful clear images - I bet you are very proud to have your own personal record of such a fleeting event.

Now I am envious. I would love to be able to capture special events I've seen. I prefer seeing with my own eyes but they instantly become memories that can soon be forgotten I did consider having a go at drawing but I'm no artist and my stars would probably end up in the wrong places.

Great image!

I didn't think I could draw either. I had a go at drawing the SN after I saw it, and my first astronomical sketch turned out very well (in my opinion, anyway). Have a go - it is suprisingly easy to get a sketch which at least serves as a memory of what it was like. Here are my attempts:

That's better than what I could do and I'm impressed that you have identified all the stars.

You can find all the star names on Wikisky - very useful. If you see the SN, I'd love to see a drawing.

As I'm no artist I thought I'd cheat and use Corel draw. This is from memory so I can only remember where the one back ground star was.
