Another NGC3576

[Star Catcher]

Here is another rendition of this picturesque nebula taken from Sydney suburbs (thank goodness for narrowband!). Imaged through a GSO RC10 and QHY16200A camera. A total of 3.75hrs exposure in Ha 7nm. I'll throw some SII and O3 into the mix when the weather allows.

A bigger better version found here:

Very nice Ted. I would use the shadows/highlights tool in Photoshop to selectively pull back a few areas where the highlights are a tad overexposed but the data no doubt it still there.

Looks great Ted, bit of sharpening going on there ;)..but you sure have showcased the wealth of linear striations present in the gas structures :thumbsup:

Thanks Dunk



Thanks Mike



Thank you.



Thanks Peter, not as smooth and detailed as your effort :)



Thanks Greg have toned it down now :)



Thanks Mike, yes the extra decon & contrast is always my preference in Ha images to bring up structures, although even with this result I had to restrain myself :) I usually tone it down in SHO, since the colour tends to look after structures.

That looks very good. Great detail and very sharp. :):

Omg this is awesome ted, can’t wait to see your sii and oiii combination. Looks like 7nm works well with Sydney pollution. Once again great job!!👍👍👍

Very dramatic, Ted.

Hi Ted,
that's a top image.
It is perhaps ever so slightly over sharpened but I still like it.

cheers

Outstanding detail and depth Ted! A great image!

[Star Catcher]

Thank you



Thanks, you can sort of get away with it when there is enough stuff in the field. I think 5 or 3nm would be more comfortable.



Thank you Rick



Thanks Allan, yes a fraction less on the pedal :)


Thank you Marc
