M17 Omega Nebula.

Hi,

Thought I'd use Omega as it seems to be it's proper name, with swan being part of the Omega Nebula.

This is a combination of images taken last year using ISO 6400 and 800.

I stacked them separately in DSS processed them in Ps2 then stacked them together again in DSS and then a final tweak PS.
I love the richness of colour in this image which is quite different to my original.

8" F/4 astrograph HEQ pro 5 mount. Orion mini guider.

Unmodded canon 1100D, baader type III coma corrector.

28 x 2 minute subs, ISO 6400 and 5 x 2minute ISO 800. Stacked in DSS, processed in photo shop Cs2..


Cheers,

Justin.
