Narrowband image Eta Carina Nebula

[sjastro]

My first attempt.

2 hrs Ha, 2 hrs OIII, SII 6 hrs (Ha=R, OIII=G SII=B)
BRC-250 scope, STXL-11002 CCD.

I decided to increase the SII filter exposure as it accentuates the contrast and provides an appealing colour (to me at least).

High resolution image.

Thanks Peter,

It might be my first narrowband colour image but I go way back to the days of hand guided multi-hour exposures using film.:(



Thanks Louie.
