Half chiken and first light RC12

[gvanhau]

Hello this is my first image after having tuned my 12" RC


Capture info: TPO RC 12" - MI250 - Atik 383 - Astrondon 5nm filters
Ha 5h, OIII 4,5 h SII 8h
Maxim DL-ACP for capture, PixInsight for processing
~0,53 arcsec/pixel
I used no flattener (have none for this telescope) but I think don't need one until I use a larger chip.

I almost doubled the expo on SII because I found it very noisy.

Small picture looses a lot so here half res picture https://www.flickr.com/photos/astro_gvanhau/16726556299/sizes/h/ and here fullsize: https://www.flickr.com/photos/astro_gvanhau/16726556299/sizes/o/

I'm not very sure/confortable with the processing, so comments welcome.

I like the colour palette Geert :thumbsup: Plenty of details too enjoy as well.

Nice work

I spent a month in Vitacura a couple of years ago and don't think I once saw the sky for more than a few minutes. Didn't think you would've been able to get so much data. Well done.

That's very nice. Some really good details in there. Not over processed. :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

Nice you were in Chile. If you come again, let me know.
Fortunately, we can use narrow band imaging else another story would be :lol:


Tanks

Thank you.
