NGC 2359 Thor's Helmet LRGBHaOIII From SPSS 2011

[CoolhandJo]

A great star party at SPSS 2011! On and off weather but at least managed to grab some data (through the clouds at times!).

Good to meet and catch up again.

This is LRGBHaOIII blended. Each Channel is 5 min x 5 (total 150 min).

Taken with EQ5 6 inch Newt Atik 314L :astron:

You take some pretty spiffy pics through that scope of yours.
Lovely work.

nice looking shot - i know nothing of processing that narrow band stuff but it looks ok to me - lots of scale and detail

[White Rabbit]

Great shot, I'm with Houghy I wouldnt have a clue how to process the narrow band stuff. Nice job.

I was nice meeting you at spsp, I look forward to meeting you there next year.

Thanks Sandy - the stars are a tad orange (Narrowband) so I have toned that part down a bit in a repo!

[Hagar]

Nice image Paul, the narrow band can be a real pain to process and maintain nice star color. You haven't done to bad with no huge halos which often totally destroy the surrounding stars. The level of detail is very good considering how dim this target is and all done with 5 minute subs..

Well done.

the repro is a definite improvement
