Like a Phoenix rising from the ashes, for me IC 2177 has a majestic avian presence, with it's ethereal curtains of Ha drifting in Stellar winds.
I was keen to let this big bird fly, so I've given it room to breath, and I've deliberately cropped out Thor's helmet as it was just too distracting from the main image.
When I purchased the SV70T I was very keen to fit the whole of this magnificent neb in the frame, but on close inspection it seemed a two panel mosaic was required.
However once I processed those it became more and more obvious that at least 6-7 panels were required to do it justice! :help:
After 3 months of data collection and a bazillion attempts to register 442 subs, here is my final mosaic for this season! :D
There's a nice Herbig Haro object in the upper right hand side, and maybe a few more objects of interest for the scientifically minded throughout the field.
Data gathered from suburban Melbourne, Vic.
Ha 5nm 50 x 1800secs
O3 3nm 16 x 900secs Binx2
S2 3nm 16 x 900secs Binx2
RGB 15 x 60sec ea per panel (315 subs!)
An absolute ball tampering nightmare to register, even using registar my laptop feinted several times until I found a method that worked. :thumbsup:
However, like the little engine that could I kept at it and eventually got This Image (https://www.astrobin.com/full/338957/C/) together :) :party2:
C&C welcome :)
