Eta Carina early in the season

[Hagar]

This image is a combination of my first light NB data collected some months ago with the Atik camera and LRGB data collected last night.

I have included a crop of the image which I guess looks a lot better than the overlayed original. I have also included the original overlayed image showing the data lost due to not considering the camera angle between imaging sessions.
This will hopefully remind me to be a bit more careful when setting up for an imaging session.

I have included these links to higher resolution versions of both images.

These images are about 1.5MB each

Comments welcome

The colour looks very nice Doug. I think you could lighten up the cropped image though as the background looks very dark.

Cheers

Yep, wonderful stuff, and a real breath of fresh air while the wind and rain are coming down up here.

Very nice well balanced image. Woudln't worry too much about the crop - the image is large enough as is. Nice work..

Thanks everyone. Really is enjoyable back out under the stars. I started to wonder if it would ever clear up here. Now it has I'm not going to waste a minute.
