I like imaging these various diverse nebulae in the LMC. A lot of them have very interesting shapes. The little tadpole shaped nebula to the top right of the main bubble nebula is very interesting.

Taken at my home observatory, O111 Ha RGB 110:60:90:90:120 for a total of 5hours and 50 minutes. All 10 min exposures.
AP RHA 305 F3.8, PME mount, QHY600m photographic version, ASI290M guide cam.

Here is a recent image.

Thanks Marc.

Yes I have been. I'm getting used to this new camera the QHY600m. Its the same in many ways but there are diffferences. I've pretty much settled on how I use it though. It is very sensitive with QE above 90 at peak and above 70% in narrowband along with lower noise. So that helps get an image quicker which is always handy.

Greg.

Very nice Greg! Always a bit mind blowing thinking we are looking at emission from a different galaxy 😀

Very nice Greg. The good thing about the Magellanic Clouds is that they are great objects for just about any focal lengths

Thanks Andy. There sure are plenty of imaging targets there.



Thanks. Yes when you look at it that way it is amazing we can see them at all.



Cheers Geoff.
