NGC3324 Gabby

A view of the northern "lobe" of Eta Carina with NGC3324, the Gabriela Mistral nebula in centre. Taken over 2 nights in Mt Duneed with 100 minutes in 5 minutes exposures in each of Ha, OIII and SII and processed into the SHO palette. Also shows the Pendant cluster, NGC7293 at lower left.

Processed entirely in Pixinsight apart from creating the JPG in photoshop. Tried the new Weighted Batch Pre Processing script and it is a winner. Also new process to get rid of magenta stars (likewise a winner!!) and overall pretty happy with results.

Scope: Stellarvue SVR102T-IS with 0.7 reducer/flattener
Mount: Orion AZ/EQ - G
Camera: ZWO ASI1600MM Pro
Guiding: ZWO ASI290mm Mini, ZWo OAG and PHD2
Filters: 36mm Astrodon Ha 5nm, OIII 3nm, SII 3nm 36mm filters in ZWO filter wheel
Software: SGP and Pixinsight
