Cone to Rosette in HaRGB

[ollypenrice]

This is a provisional attempt because I bodged the framing of the second Ha panel and missed a bit, so that is tonight taken care of! I also need more Ha anyway but this has two hours per panel.

Canon EF200L lens, Atik 4000 mono for Ha and OSC for colour.

Ha subs 15 mins, colour subs a mix of 5 and 10. The latter turned out to be better but I was new to the lens.

At this rate you will have entirely panelled out the entire Northern Hemisphere by the end of Summer

This wonderful... lovely detail and I like the needle sharp stars..

Out of interest what aperture was the lens set to?

Excellent, Olly, I knew you'd get on with that 200L but your splicing skills are what make it!

Thanks Guy(s)

It was at f3.5 but since the stars were identically round across the chip I might go for half a stop faster next time. Great fun!!

This is a different processing:

Massive and awesome Its seriously putting the thought of getting an OSC version of the 314L+ into my head! (to compliment the mono cam) mmmmm speedy

I think Olly should map the entire sky.. then upload them as a stellarium addon.

Hi Olly,

That is spectacular as usual. Really love it!

Maybe some more mosaicing to get the lower hydrogen arm included ???

Many regards and see you again soon.

Hi Pieter, back OK?

Glad you like it and yes, I should do a ssecond pair of images I know. But last night I was tired out and went to bed under a perfect sky...

Ouch, I know. My hero EE Barnard would't have done it but I have been out all night for most of the last two weeks. Poor excuse, I know. Oh dear, moral doghouse...

I was going to go for "amazing" but I've decided that "cor!" is more suitable. Brilliant stuff Olly.
