A Northern Dragon

Voyager Software- just starting with this after having problems with SGPro autofocusing, well worth the change, great software. The Web Dashboard is awesome.

I found this hard to process as it disappears in a very deep starfield, some one more skilled than I could do it justice.
Being close to the equator does have its benefits, more northern targets available.

yeah, nice one!

From other images I've seen of this, it does seem a toughie to pull detail from... I reckon you've done well there~!

Lots of people seem to rate Voyager highly... anything in particular that is standing out as better, or just an overall thing?

[vlazg]

Thanks, it was hard.
Roboguide and Robofocus are fantastic, very stable and accurate, yes, an overall thing. For the first time i can set up a nights imaging and walk away with confidence. SGPro although very good did not give me this confidence and support did leave a little bit to be desired. Voyager replies very quickly. As I said , the dashboard is fantastic.

It's still come up very nicely George, not one I'd ever consider down here in the Deep South ;)

[vlazg]

Thanks Col, I dont think you can see it down there in Mexico. :D

That's a really nice shot of some intriguing faint Ha nebula strands George, an area I'd love to have a shot at but also living in Mexico :rolleyes:...no chance :sadeyes: Hallmark pin point FSQ stars too :thumbsup:

That's a terrific image George.

Greg.

Thanks Greg and Mike, it is an interesting area with more intriguing areas. At the moment it is unfinished, I trying to make the stars less intrusive but everything I have tried so far gives it that blocky plasticised look.
Gotta love Taks :D

Beautiful sharp stars in the entire field. And a very pleasing image George :thumbsup:

Thanks Suavi, with a Mach 1 and an FSQ, idiot proof. :D:)K
