Spiky Horse Head, Unmodded Canon 1100D.

Hi,

I recently adjusted my vanes on the 8" f/ astrograph, and thought I'd do a Horse Head with bright star Zeta Orion in the Field.
Sure makes for dramatic spikes!!

This is the third time for the Horse head region and I think my best so far. I'm happy with the definition that's come out in the HA curtain.
Quite a lot of processing to get this with the unmodded 1100D.

Equipment used.
8” F/4 astrograph , baader type 3 coma corrector,. HEQ Pro 5 mount, orion mini guider.
Camera.
Unmodded Cannon 1100D.

10 x 8 minute subs an 10 x 5 minutes, ISO 1600, darks, flats and bias frames applied.
Stacked in Deep Sky Stacker .Processed in Photoshop 7.

Cheers,

Justin.
