Hickson44 in colour

[MikeD]

Hi all.

Got me some colour for this last night.

18 @ 4 mins R

12 @ 4 mins G

12 @ 4 mins B

To go with the 44 @ 5 mins L

Not sure about the colour, looks a little too sepia I think.

Anyway here it is.

usual setup 10" newt and HX916 CCD.

I'd never heard of Hickson 44 before this, thanks for introducing it.

Surfing around the net I've found a few pictures of this group by other amateurs and without exception all successful photos use much larger scopes.. the best image being from a 14" beast with top notch camera/mount, next best used a 20", so to get a decent capture with an 10" you've done very very well.

Thanks for posting
