30 Doradus
Have to say I'm quite pleased with this one so far.
The seeing was better than average and allowed me to resolve many features
....that are typically a mushy mess at 500mm...into some delightful filigree details.
Of course, I'll add to the data and do some colour.
A cropped field is shown at around 50% resolution. No de-con applied....great data doesn't need it
The link is here

That’s some pretty lovely detail Peter, resolution that I don’t quite get at 600mm
Going HaRGB or HOO?

Ta. When the data first popped up on my monitor I thought: hummm haven't seen those turbulent bits before!
Will probably run with HaRGB, as OIII would require a carousel swap.

Wonderful!
There is an interesting but tiny structure about 18 pixels across at coordinates (1060,950) (in a dark patch closely touching the spider's body), that looks like a slightly dark edged tilted perfect square. Unusual in space. Exactly the same translucent postage-stamp structure is present in our image. Never noticed it before.
Well done!
Best,
Mike

Thanks Guys. You piqued my interest. This led me to the Hubble team's image of the same.
This led me to two realisations.
1) We are all hacks ...the Hubble image is simply magnificent!
2) That celestial postage stamp is sort of, a low res Rorschach test. The
fish swimming towards me...or in this case postage stamp... goes away at higher resolution.

Yes I think you are very justified in being pleased with that Peter. I love the highly detailed 3D appearance.
Cheers

Thank you gentlemen....it was partially clear last night, hence I used the opportunity to grab some more h-alpha.
Now with two hours worth of data I could apply just a smidge of sharpening, the results of which are at the same URL.
The forecast looks clear
...hopefully long enough to bag some colour

Hi Peter,
I visually remember the prior image was already excellent, and you've gone up a level and then some! Now for the colour. Good hunting.

Beautifully done, Peter! I'm seriously impressed by the dynamic range you've captured in the centre and you can see the Radcliff 136 cluster clearly.
I'm intrigued by the two helical shapes just below the central part of the nebulosity. I saw them in my own Ha image, but they are much clearer in yours, and still look like two things have gone whizzing off and spinning...
cheers,
Andrew.

Marvellous; it looks like you could jump in and fly around in there and take in the sights.

Wonderful image, but also learned lots from the write up.
Didn't realise the relative size was so ginormous!
