Carastro Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 I don't normally give too much in the way of likes and comments to images done robotically, but in your case I know you probably set it all up and maintained it yourself, so I will treat it the same as BackYard imaging. Lovely image Peter, glad you found something to do during your quarantine after visiting Spain to do this maintenance work. Only 1 hour in Ha?????

Carole Thanks Carole....yes it was certainly an eventful trip with the van breaking down and missing the ferry back.... I have a bit of data to get through, I'm spending my quarantine time processing and refining some of the settings from the equipment changes I did while out there, focus curves and mount modelling etc... there is a lot to do with 14 piers. The Ha is so strong in it it really only needed an hour. 16 minutes ago, MarkAR said: Lovely work Peter. Thank you 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The detail is awesome Thank you, I'm very pleased with the detail to be honest David...... Ive just put a 3nm NII filter in this set up I might see what that brings to this data set.

The deep gold really contrasts well with the blue. Thank you, To be honest I wasn't sure about the colour at first, but really like it now. I will be collecting some NII for it, Im not sure how much it has in but it might add something a little different to the data set.......lets see! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you get that [NII] in there have a look at M27, it has a humongous amount of [NII] signal, and really pulls out structure in the core. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
