Some older images

[assbutt94]

I started trying to organise my computers hard-drives a little and found a few older edits that I never posted.
This was with a Nexstar 8se that I didn't collimate properly until after I stopped using it for Astrophotography :lol:.
Camera was also unmodded.

Also a general question to you all.
Do you keep all of your data?
How long do you keep what for?

Your answers may inspire someone to not be such a hoarder :lol:

NGC 253 Sculptor Galaxy - About 10-12 of 3min exposures Iso 1600
Darks used, not sure about flats. Captured from Penrith, CLS CCD filter, x0.63 reducer. Dec '18

M8 Lagoon Nebula - 13x 1min exposures Unguided Iso 6400
Darks and Flats used, x0.63 Reducer, No filter, Windellama (Near Goulburn)
I took 70 exposures but most had too much movement to use - Aug '18

I found some of M20 and NGC 1365 (Great Barred Spiral Galaxy), that I forgot about and never processed. I could have done it over the last several cloudy weeks :shrug:
I'll add them here if I get around to it

I have one folder that I call the gallery, into which I put all completed images that I am happy with, and a few that I'm not happy with, but due to being difficult targets, will most likely never be improved upon. They are not in any particular order, just a gallery for browsing in.
I have another folder which I call images; When I complete a set of subs I
put them in a file which is dated to the month and year and titled whatever
object the subs were of, and put the file in the images folder in its correct
chronological position.

Thanks for contributing Nathan.
Nice images and I particulary like the gallaxy..very nice.
And the Lagoon well done one of my favorites I never tire of viewing.

I hope I can get a decent go at it this year in narrowband.
