M8 Lagoon

[CoolhandJo]

Here is the combined RGB + Duo Band version of my Lagoon Nebula. Its 10 hours of Ha Oii Duo band (L-Extreme) combined with 1.5 hours of RGB (L-Pro). I took this in 4min subs on a Star Adventurer Pro2 with an ASI 522 MC Pro though and ED72 guided. I processed in Pixinsight and Photoshop. Bortle 5 on average. I cool the camera down to -10deg and fully calibrated the images.

Good work Paul

Nice framing to include NGC6544.

I had a look at M8 on the NASA site, pretty amazing.
It is on my bucket list for NB.


Well done :thumbsup:

Thanks Peter. This will probably be the last deep space image I take with the star adventuer for a while. I purchased a heq5. The tracker has served me extremely well and I was surprised by the quality it gave in RA only guiding.
