Popular Post AstronomyUkraine Posted August 11, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 11, 2021 SHO image of IC 1795, or more commonly known as the Fishhead nebula. The Fishhead is located in the constellation of Cassiopeia and is part of the much larger Heart nebula - IC 1805. Data from 10 hours of each SHO filter was used to create the image. No RGB stars yet. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Instead of the usual SHO mix, I played around with the mix in PixelMath until I got the desired colour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have shot the Heart before with my 80 ED, but never realised the amount of detail the Esprit 120 would bring out.

TerryMcK Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 The 120 certainly does get in close on the fishhead Brian. Do you have a reducer/flattener on it or just a 1x flattener? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skywatcher make a 0.77 reducer/flattener which would reduce the fl to 646 from 840mm and to an f5.39. I was supposed to be just using the flattener for galaxy season, but I like getting up close with some of these smaller nebula. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkAR Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 Probably the best Fish Head I've seen yet. Wonderful colour and detail. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pleased with it myself. I'm quite lucky with the weather, allowing me to devote a lot of integration time to these nebula. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
