my first omega

[war bird]

took this shot last summer from my dark sky site.
2x 50 sec ,ed 80 ,400d, 800 iso.

cant wait to gat back there and do some real exposures.
was my first trip up the bush to take images so i was very exited
and tried to photograph as many dso as i could.
next time i will consentrate on far fewer targets allowing for proper exp times.

Simple but nice I guess it show everything it needs to so that makes it a winner

Not bad for two subs. More data would certainly go along way. Look forward to seeing more of your work.

eek, thats good for such a small exposure, well, done, small tight stars, nice colour, now get serious, buy a btter keyboard, it seems you have the same one I have, sticky keys ;-).

Great image for only 100 seconds of data!

A suggestion, Next time you post an image up, rather than having it at such a high resolution and compressing it heaps, try cropping it to just the area of interest and resizing it down to somewhere around 1000px wide, then compressing it a little bit to get it under the 200k mark. that way the image will appear a lot cleaner.

Once again, Great image.

Alex.

For only 100 seconds worth of data, you have done a great job. Some nice suttle colouring.

Looking forward to more of your work Warbird. :thumbsup:

Nice Image Warbird. Lots of detail in the core area. Try to reduce the size of the image and not just the compression and your image will look a lot better. At this size the JPG/compression artifacts tend to overpower the image. Nice one though for so few subs.

Well done Warbird, excellent clarity and resolution for such short exposures.

[war bird]

thanks guys!, will reduce image size and adjust comp better next time.

Wow! Spectacular resolution! ;)
