Annotated Lagoon, 17 hrs, slightly sharper, less artifact

A very long time since we did the lagoon.

Red: SII 7hrs, Green Ha 5hrs, Blue OIII 5hrs, all 1hr unbinned subs. 3nM. Aspen CG16M on 20" PlaneWave. Stars whitened.

Original image here


Edit: Reprocessed version here. Slightly sharper, slightly less artifact around stars.

It looks much more lagoon-shaped than our previous effort, but we've annotated some other interesting features in the thumb:

A: Flying kangaroo head.
B: Wind god blowing streams of gas
C: Masculine hair dryer
D: Emu
E: Gangly running character from Mad Magazine
F: Soft toy tyrannosaur
G: Mrs Logie
H: Fiery Cliffs

The hourglass is burned out in H-alpha in 1-hour subs. We'll try some 15 minute shots if we get another clear night.

Very best,
Mike n Trish
