After many aborted exposures due cloud, aircraft and low earth orbit rubbish....

I got a little colour data tonight.

A first quarter moon was not helping at all with gradients...but figured I'd post the evening's results. Needs a total re-shoot but, hey, it was sort of clear :)

The link is here. (http://www.atscope.com.au/BRO/gallery147.html)

Hmmm, looks promising but I think you're pushing your luck with that small an amount of colour data AND a first quarter moon. I'd probably give the core some more green curve (it's too purple IMO). And surely there's more contrasty HA goodness in there busting to get out (?)

:question: Fair enough! :)

... Probably make some changes but..suspect the data just isn't deep enough to be tinkered with very much.

P.S. Attached..dammed aviators! :)

Green & Red streaks ?
Looks like Alitalia Flight 2944. :P

Nice image though Pete, I kinda like the purple hues.

:thumbsup:

Not bad with that amount of data Peter!

Thanks Steve...yep needs more data...



If it was Alitalia...they were lost :)


I did manage to get a reasonable amount of H-alpha.

Here is a link (http://www.atscope.com.au/BRO/gallery148.html)to a 80%-res crop of the core

Exactly. :lol:
Could have been worse, could have been Olympic Airways. :P
