A cobbled together Eta

[Stevec35]

This image is a first light for my AO-X. For various reasons it's been in the box most of the time since I got it. This is a combination of 180 minutes on the 36.8 cm RC using the AO-X and 210 minutes of OIII data obtained about two years ago using the 31.75cm RC. Hopefully I'll follow this up with some RGB data if the weather cooperates.

Cheers

Steve

Mmmmm chocolate moose with hundreds and thousands :lol:

Seriosuly though :P interesting take, had a good look around and there is certainly lots to see... and those stars, well their cores anyway, are tiny :eyepop:

Very sharp, Steve!

Great detail there Steve. It would be good to see the Ha by itself.

Greg.

[Stevec35]

Thanks Greg. Yes you are right - probably should have just posted he Ha.



Thanks Rick



Thanks Mike. As Greg says I probably should have just posted the Ha. The old OIII data doesn't really add much.

I decided I could do a better job with the colour so here's a reprocess.

A beautiful closeup photo Steve.

Great detail and so sharp.

I prefer the colour of your newer version.

I love the composition.

Ross.

[Stevec35]

Thanks Ross. This was superseded by the newer version. It used some old OIII data I had where the new one used fresh data.

That's a superbly sharp and detailed Eta C Steve. Nice.

Greg.

Thanks Greg. Basically it's the same one I think you've already commented on but I have added a few tweaks. So when are we going to see some RHA pictures?
