Horsehead and Flame Nebulae from ASIGN Observatory II

[bloodhound31]

Three hundred and twenty minutes of photon capture to produce this image of the Horse head and Flame nebulae.

At 1500 Light years away, the dark Horse head shape is made of thick cloud of dust, silhouetted against the bright emissions of the hydrogen gas behind it.


Sometimes the upload algorithms turn this image an over saturated magenta. It should be a light pink. If you are having this problem, the image is also on my website so you can see it as it should be here. (http://www.asignobservatoryii.com/apps/photos/photo?photoid=186332271)

Make the pic on IIS bigger, or post a link to a bigger one. When you click on the small pic on yr site (expecting a bigger one) you get a different one instead.

A different one? I just clicked on it and it takes you to the same image. Are you getting a different image?

[Bassnut]

Yes, I get M8 (the same size) (Chrome)

The small one shows a nice result was had anyway :thumbsup:

Well that's just weird. I clicked on it several times and it takes me to the Horsehead image every time....

I'll edit/refresh the link and see if that fixes it.

They are saying when they click the image on your site it scrolls to an image of M8. I think that is intended, but what they were expecting is a larger image as the one on your site is virtually the same as the one posted here.

Ah right. I see now.

What I am saying is that on some fora, the colour gets thrown out when I use a link to the image on Imgur. Probably not relevant to IIS as this is the one forum where the BB code for Imgur doesn't work, so I have to upload the image direct to IIS.

Sorry for the confusion.
