OMG – another Omega, better late than never!

Hello,

At the risk of saturating IIS with this wonderful celestial powerhouse of stars, here is Omega Centauri as seen through the eye of the Tak Mewlon 180 F12 with the x0.8 Reducer/Flattener bringing it down to F9.6. The saturation of the stars has been increased slightly, resulting in the enhanced blues and yellows.

In this instance, the eye was the unmodded Canon 40D, with 5 x 180 second exposures at 400 ASA captured on 8th February 2008. This colour enhanced image is a 1024x768 crop from the full frame.

Cheers

Dennis
