Hi All,

Here is something a little bit different. I call it the Angry Star, Zeta Puppis.

It's not what I call a real first light image as it was taken during a RGB calibration test run during the setup process of my rig. Normally I wouldn't post something like this but it came out better than I expected.

Thanks for looking.

What a lovely pic, and the colours of the other stars in the field are great too :thumbsup:

your image is great, and shows that the latest Sbig cameras dont bloom at all :)
star imaging is not something most of us do, but Photoncollector (Paul) gave a great talk at the Newcastle Astro Society meeting about star imaging, he has a good number of different coloured stars here
