[wysiwyg (Mark)]

Its been a long time between images for me and I even had to look up notes on how to process.

Well, all the hard work has payed off, I have finally something to show.

This image was taken on Monday Night in the suburbs of Adelaide using the FSQ-106 and SBIG STL-11K combination.
The Trifid, Lagoon combo is an LRGB image comprised of 10 x 30sec exposures in each channel.
Darks, Flats subtracted and stacked using CCDSoft. Processed in Photoshop for final touches.

I have also included some crops from the main image of Trifid and Lagoon, and I am very impressed at the resolving power of this combo.

Now I that my image acquisition process is automated I can concentrate on the processing aspect of this hobby.
Cannot wait to give this combo a go in dark skies.

Thanks for Looking!
