A but of fun with M16 in NB

[pmrid]

Accidents will happen. I mde a mistake in the clipped-mask sequence for these subs but decided to keep the result anyway. I know it's a bit pink and 'girlie' but overall, I don't mind the colour balance.
Opinions will undoubtedly differ but once you go down that NB road, 'real' colours seem to become an elusive concept.

Different! I don't mind the colour either.
What mount do you use? EdgeHD14 is one serious scope! :)

The Edge is currently on a Titan but if the much-vaunted Paramount MX (delivery in 2nd Quarter - yes really) ever turns up, it'll sit there.

Hmmmm, details are good - colours ain't doin' it for me though. I'm more of a traditionalist (if there's ever such a thing :question: ) in narrow band. I like the way Bob Franke does things ATM (if you're interested have a look at his guide for the Gold/Turquoise HST mappings here (http://bf-astro.com/hubbleP.htm)). But then again experimentation ain't such a bad path on the road to imaging nirvana, just a few more twists and turns and dead ends and endless repros :lol:
