ProLine 16803 shoots the little red pussy cat tracks

[strongmanmike]

This is the third image I have done with the new big black camera and I have to say, I thought the PL11002 was a great camera, and it was, but man!!! this 16803 beast is every bit as good and more! :thumbsup:

This is an LHaRGB image, the area is full of HII and dust so there is a lot of interstellar reddening but some blue reflection nbulosity can be seen here and there.

I was bit more careful with the processing this time, no colour fringing from subs miss alignment and no blue cast...maybe I wont need to repro.... :P

[Peter Ward]

Nothing you shouldn't be purring about. Nice :thumbsup:

[Bassnut]

OK, must admit, thats pretty cool, nice one. You got SII OIII filters for that thing?.

[strongmanmike]

Hmm? sounds decidedly like you struggled to say that Fred :lol:...Awww I thought you loved me :(



Yeh, I got the whole shabbang...but so far it has proved a little hard to get the mega data required for narrowband :sadeyes:

Cheers :)

Nice one. I like how you got the blue bits to come through. This one is usually bright red in all the renditions I've seen. Awesome details too. Gotta be chuffed with that field. :thumbsup:

[strongmanmike]

Thanks Marc, yes I am very happy with this result and the big chip finally came into its own on this field :thumbsup:

Mike

[strongmanmike]

Yes, it is a pleasure to process the data, so far the new camera is living up to its reputation, I was worried there for a while becasue I couldn't get out and use her much to varify it in the first two months but now I have thee images under my belt I am starting to relax. I have one more data set to process from the last imaging run :)



Yes 1000's of light years tall I'd recon..? Maybe the pussy from The Goodies..? :P



Yes and it's red like your car too :thumbsup:

[Bassnut]

[Bassnut]

A small, tiny tweak, to improve colour and reduce star clutter :D

[strongmanmike]

That's beautiful Fred but why are you posting one of your images in this thread :shrug:

:rofl:

[peter_4059]

Great cats paw Mike. That sure is a huge field of view.

[Bassnut]

[David Fitz-Henr]

Amazing shot Mike, great colours and a huge field - that'd have to be a mosaic for the rest of us!!

[h0ughy]

WOW i can hear Tom Jones now ----- "whats up Pussycat, whoah awhooaah........".

Lovely shot Mike - now after freds effort you must produce a starless shot............

[strongmanmike]

Cheers guys :thumbsup:

Houghy, I'll see what I can do ;)

[strongmanmike]

I tried Dave but there are too many stars, no matter what I did it never looked clean in the end...so I trashed the idea :P
