Greetings,

Back in 2005 I shot a 6 segment mosaic of the LMC in Ha light with my STL 11000M from Coonabarabran. Last night I completed a full re-shoot of the LMC in Ha light with the FLI Proline 16803 and FSQ from the same location, but this time with unlimited access the sky. A considerable amount of post processing was done on each of the individual nebulae shells to bring out the internal details.

The full resolution image can be found here.

Be sure to use the full screen selection and press f11 to remove the borders.

Enjoy the ride!

Telescope: Takahashi FSQ 105 f/5
Filter: AstroDon 5nm Ha
Exposure. 9 segments, 22 exposures each segment of 40 minutes each
