Hi everyone 🤗🤗

Taken over numerous nights with a total of 10 hours integration time, and a total of 10 hours processing time playing around with colors etc which is my weakest link to this hobby :) LOL
Scope: Skywatcher ED/120

Thanks Nik 🤗

Very nice Jen. You got a lot of the O111. I struggled with that somewhat.

Hi Jen

Link to your image is broke (well it is for me).

[Jen]

Thanks Greg, the one thing that frustrates me with the O111 filter is that it always gives me a halo around the bright stars 🥺

[Jen]

Oh no sorry, I don’t know why that would be :shrug:

Well done Jen a lovely result. Must be hard having to get your images after travelling 100km's, setting up and sitting out in a remote paddock, freezing your butt off in front of a lap top, in the dark with no creature comforts, listening to scary animal cries through the night :scared2: .. :shrug:....:sadeyes:

Mike :lol:

Looks great! Nice, chilled out colour palette :thumbsup::thumbsup:

[Jen]

Hehe thanks guys 🤗🤗
Yeah Mike, I don’t know how the peeps with no observatories survive such cold lonely conditions hehehehe
I don’t know how I used to do it 🤗😜🥶🥶🥶
Best thing I have ever done was get an obs built 😍😍
I’m loving every minute of it 👍👍

I have an observatory too (Sirius 2.3m dome) but apart from mostly protecting me from wind, I still freeze inside and it is a manual dome, so turny, turny, by hand, all night long, fully coated and beanied up in winter (plus the wild animal noises) :lol:
