I have another☺
I purchased a zwo cooled mono camera with the fancy automated filter wheel and honestly had terrible buyer remorse...a conditiin of debilitating regret and guilt about making a frivolous purchase.
It was not only the money, which after the pirchase I could not justify to myself...others sure☺...and it became apparent that building a narrow band image was an extremely complicated matter and involved a great deal of time both for data capture and for processing...and clearly it was beyond a Mug like me.
The next images somewhat made me feel better not only because I produced a result that made me happy but because the object is my favorite astrophotography ibject....I always wanted to produce a colourful image of this object.
And although I was (still am having☺) problems getting it all together I produced an image that helped me realise buying the zwo was a good step.
Now the image was not processed correctly in so far as I coloured in a black and white multiple stack but as I said it made me very happy to produce an image similar to the ones I wished that I could ever since I saw the first.
I posted it here and looked the next day and it seemed over saturated so I did a second to back off the colour but feel the ideal colour is somewhere between the two.
Next year I hope to do it all the right way with a set up that totally works.
