The Prawn Nebula in narrowband and RGB

[gregbradley]

I did this one a while ago in excellent seeing with my CDK17.

An interesting area I have never imaged before so its new to me.

Looks great Greg, I really like the colour palette & details. :thumbsup:

[gregbradley]

Thanks Andy. I have spent a fair bit of time calibrating my monitor and I am confident now its pretty accurate. That helps a lot.

Very impressive Greg and I love the palette. I can only see the thumbnail though. When I access the links though I'm asked to log in as Greg Bradley.

[gregbradley]

Thanks Steve. My apologies. I hadn't checked the view publicly box. Fixed now.

Nice one Greg, I love that wave crest/ridge line on this object and the pastel salmon and blue you have settled on looks quite nice too, it has an almost charcoal drawing look to it :thumbsup:

Is that the full frame?

Mike

[gregbradley]

I liked that ridge line as well. It came out well. Yes this is the full frame.

Greg.

[strongmanmike]

Ah, with your 17" at F6.8 and your ProLine we have very similar FOV's then :thumbsup:

Mike

[gregbradley]

Yes I guess so. The CDK/Proline is .66 arc secs.

Very cool, Greg! Some nice wispy stuff I've not seen before and lots of detail.

[Atmos]

Very nice image Greg, even on my lowly iPhone :P Particularly love the region just right of centre where it looks like the Suns rays are just bursting out!

[gregbradley]

Cheers Erik.



Thanks Rick. It was a night of excellent seeing and I was loving the downloads as they were coming down.




Thanks Colin. It is quite a dynamic area.

Greg.

The little thumbnail doesn't do it justice. Glad I went through to the large version. Very nice.

Beautiful image Greg! I love the palette and great detail.

Tony

[gregbradley]

Thanks Chris. The large 16803 creates quite a field.



Thanks very much Tony.

That's a beautiful image Greg! Very compelling. :thumbsup:

[gregbradley]

Thanks very much Marcus. I was happy it turned out well. I wish all images turned out that way!

Greg.

[gregbradley]

I just did a little tweak to improve detail in the bright golden areas which has revealed more detail. Same link.

Greg.

[rustigsmed]

very nicely done Greg, you've handled the faint delicate wispy gas so well.

cheers

[gregbradley]

Thanks Russ. I liked that aspect that was in the data. The flows like a river.

Greg.

[Paul Haese]

Great detail Greg, especially around the boundary areas. I really like the striations of gas and how that looks generally. Quite 3D.

[gregbradley]

Thanks Paul. I liked the downloads coming down at the time. Great tracking and great seeing at the time helped. I am starting to see the CDK's real potential now.

Greg.
