eta and sombrero

[blink138]

hello members still finding my way around this AP lark..... but my word what great fun!
anyhoo at f6.3 eta and sombrero i will really have to go about finding out about the light box exposures, they still seem to be brighter in the middle
eta 11 stacked @ 20secs
sombrero 20 stacked @ 15secs (first time go)
any other improvements i would love to hear about

No improvements from me! But just want to say: keep posting images like these! As someone else who is new-ish to AP, it is good to see what others are doing and how long they are exposing for, etc... :)

I like the Eta shot.

thanks a lot grant!
i should also mention that eta was at 800 iso and sombrero at 1600
i was also shocked to learn how good a decent pollution filter works!
@ 20 secs and f6.3 m42 was a mess without it the other night as i am less than 4km from perth cbd

Nice stuff. Which filter are you using.
Any chance of posting a single unstacked image so we can see what the captures on the night look like before processing?
