Lovely emission nebula in Carina. I've always been fascinated by these beautiful diaphanous clouds of Ha.
This is my first serious attempt at using my new ZWO1600mm in combination with the rest of my all_ZWO rig on an 8inch Newt at F5.
Not the best conditions - bliostering hot day, city lights, 80% moon and gusting breezes but what the hell!
This image is comprised of Astrodon 5nm Ha, SII and OIII at 20x300 secs each and stacked in DSS. Processed in Photoshop as a SHO but tweaked via Photoshop tweaking of selective colours in line with the technique at http://bf-astro.com/hubbleP.htm
I have not cropped this image despite the obvious presence of coma and other artifacts. I am working on those but decided I liked this enough to throw it out there.
