Hi everyone,

Almost two months ago I shot IC4628:

Nikon modified D70, 4 x 640s @ 800 ISO with the C9.25 @ f/6.3 on the Vixen GP DX.

Note the subtle colour hues in the nebulosity!

I still have a Virgo cluster around that same time to process.

Cheers,

Fantasic Erwin.

A wonderful shot there, very accurate guiding and focus there too I note. How dark is the location where you shot it from?
Thanks.

Incredible Erwin, but it's time to bring out the fishing line ;)

eh? what are you on mike?

great shot. the blue of which you speak is quite bright around one of the stars and towards the bottom mixing with the red makes a pretty almost purple colour. well done! :D

Gee wiz

It's taken me over half an hour to get through this VanderVelden Blitz.:rofl:

Enjoyed every minute of it.:cool2:

Well Done Erwin

[iceman]

Me too!

He will be sadly missed.

Mike,

I'm stunned. I just saw Terry's Post on Digital_Astro about Erwin passing away.

We have lost a gem
