Ngc613

[Paul Haese]

Whilst I am having all sorts of dramas with the AG12, I have been collecting data with the RC12. This time on NGC613.

I had trouble finding a suitable guide star for the AO, so I had to offset a fair bit. Seeing was not great either but I have to take what is available to me. However, despite this the plethora of background galaxies is amazing in the field of view. I think a few of them are very distant indeed.

That’s a top-shelf rendition of this little gem.
Nice one

Very nice, mate.



I wondered about the framing.

Good rendition of a really pretty galaxy Paul.

Beautiful target, well photographed

[cometcatcher (Kevin)]

Awesome stuff! The main attraction surrounded by lesser but just as intriguing appetisers. Now, which one has life?

[Atmos (Colin)]

Really nice Paul! You’ve managed to capture detail in the tiny background galaxies which shows a sharp image

[gregbradley]

Well, that surprised me, it was way better than I expected. Its a smallish galaxy and you've got some great colour and detail there.

Really good.

Greg.

Beautiful, Paul!

Stunning. Beautiful photo.

[Paul Haese]

Thanks everyone for your comments. Seeing at Clayton has been less than the usual for months so obtaining half reasonable data can be a bit hit and miss at the moment, although seeing last night was quite nice with a high pressure sitting over us.

Hi Paul,

Great image, As usual,

I recently moved to Clayton (4 days ago), and looking forward to setting up a small observatory, once my family and I settle in.

Cheers Peter

Exquisite.
