DaveS Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 Work very much In Progress. This was supposed to be 9 subs G2v Bin 2 RGB with the ODK rig, but three of the Blue subs had too much trailing. Sigma Add stacking in AA8, Crop, Gradient Reduction, DDP and a bit of fiddling after RGB synthesis. I will try to add more data as and when, but the sky conditions have been discouraging lately, and are getting worse until we have a good a good amount of rain to wash the clag out. The framing could have been better, I've lost a few galaxies from the top (West) of the image. Never mind, it is what it is. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 I'm liking what I see so far, there is a lot going on. Your focusing seems tack sharp too 👍 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveS Posted March 25, 2022 Author Share Posted March 25, 2022 Thanks Paul. The sky looks poorer than it was last night so may have to pass it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob-c Posted March 26, 2022 Share Posted March 26, 2022 Very nice Dave, i love those two main stars too. looks like the ODK is performing well.👍 Bob 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveS Posted March 26, 2022 Author Share Posted March 26, 2022 Thanks Bob, yes it's a very nice 'scope indeed (Should be for that price!), and is definitely seeing limited. I managed another 9 subs in RGB (Instead of the BGR sequence previously) and again had a few trailed subs, but in the Red channel this time. Think I may have to sort out my sky model. If the conditions aren't too horrible I will try for 6 hours of Bin 1 Luminance (Just in case there's any detail beyond the 1.2"/px) tonight then put it to bed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveS Posted March 27, 2022 Author Share Posted March 27, 2022 I now managed to capture another 9 RGB subs plus 36 Bin 1 Luminance, but again had trailing so not all made it into the stacks. This is the result after a lot of crude image-bashing in AstroArt 8. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
