IC410 and NGC1893

[Leonardo70]

Hello everyone.

On lastSaturday I used the 2 ½ hours of darkness and even part-time on the moon for the nebula IC410 with inside the open cluster NGC 1893.

I opted for a composite luminance signal from RGB mixed with the H-Alpha. Scope used GSO RC 10" reduced to F5.2
and Atik4000 CCD camera. Location Pragelato on Turin Alps, Italy.

I pulled everything I could and I think I managed to keep the 1000 shades of color that make this area one of the richest treasures of this period on the nothern sky.

Bellisimo Leonardo DaVista :thumbsup:

Excellent processing there, I like the addition of just the Ha too, B&W images look so cool sometimes.

Do you think the SX AO is worth using?
