vdB 126

[Tom Davis]

Here is a combined effort on vdB 126 in Vulpecula. I used an ASA corrected newtonian from Idaho to capture the luminance but I used an Astro-Physics 160 at New Mexico Skies to get the color data.

I believe this vdB object could be imaged from the southern hemisphere.

Another beautifully rendered deep image of another random region of the sky, (I should get one of those 12" F3.6's :rolleyes:) imagine if you keep at it for a few more years (decades?) Tom..the mosaic of the sky you could construct would be awesome :thumbsup:

Yes, another super shot Tom. Wonderful star field and isn't that dark nebula pretty?

A rip-snorter of an image Tom! Pleasing contrast emphasising the dark nebulae features. Top work!

Thanks guys.

That's a great image. One of the few I have seen using an AP160.

Your ASA works really well too. They are nice when they do.
