Popular Post Vicki Posted February 13, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted February 13, 2021 My perseverance in the cold paid off thankfully on wed night. 2 hours 51 minutes of 180s guided exposures with no moon!! Like, when does that ever happen?! The core needs some shorter subs but I'm not too worried at the moment because just look at all that dust! It's so pretty. I'm just totally blown away with the performance of this camera, I love everything about it. I have almost 2 hours of Ha from my quad band filter also to add at a later date. Hope you like it. SW72ED, HEQ5 PRO. Lightwave 0.8 reducer/ flattener, Hypercam 269c pro TEC. (SharpCap) Starwave 50mm and GPCAM2 290C for guiding (PHD2) Stacked in APP and processed in Photoshop 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty cool for just under 3 hours of data. It will look even better with the Ha and a few shorter subs to take care of the core.

Thank you very much. I would like to do a little selective sharpening, but I do like the wispiness of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
