NGC2359 Thor's Helmet

[CoolhandJo]

With no end in site of these clouds I have to settle with Thor's Helmet in Ha O3. 13 hours with L-Extreme Filter and ASI 533MC with ED80 on a HEq5. I processed this image in Pixinsight.

I wanted to add RGB but i doubt the target will be available when this cloud rolls off! :)

That's beautiful... where on earth did you find the clear skies to take this?! Are we in the same Sydney?

Thanks Adam! Yes I squeezed in about 3 or 4 nights when clear but I had to do all nighters !

That is really quite impressive. Very detailed and I like the HOO colour palette too. The ED80, 533 & Lextreme are a great combo from the look of it, along with some nice processing of course. :thumbsup:

Thanks Andrew. The 533 is a bit of a beast with the ED80
