M83 and M62 - Hopefully getting better at this ..

[toryglen-boy]

M83 through 200m, guided with Orion SSAG and ST80 on an EQ6, with a Canon 1000d, etc. etc. 2 hours worth of data, with darks etc.

M62 through the above. about 20 mins worth, with darks. I just happened to be in the part of the sky and thought, oh go on then ...

Duncan,

Oh, dude. You've got the hang of it now!

Might I suggest dropping the reds and increasing the blues in your M83? Otherwise, you're on your way now. :D

Do you image from your backyard?

Duncan, you are nailing it real fast!

Coming together really well, mate. Keep at it:D:D

Very nice. Indeed there's no stopping you now :thumbsup:

Duncan, looks like you are coming to terms with it all now. The backgrounds look a little black to me and I wonder if there is still some data which can be extracted yet.
A real improvement. Well done.

Hi fella, yeah i image from my backyard. And yeah, i can see that blues would be better, thanks for you kind words

;)



Thanks mate, i think i need to set the colour temp on my lap, to the same as my main disply, on the laptop, where i do my processing, the image is cooler and brighter, so the sky doesnt look so dark, and has more of a blue tint.

thanks everyone for the encouragement

;)

Great work and 2 hours of data! That is really good guiding. Well done and keep at it. There is a whole sky waiting to be imaged.
