greetings. this image of the helix nebula ngc7293 was taken at qld astrofest on a night when the air temperature remained at above 23c for the entire capture
. unfortunatly a combination of an uncooled dslr and to high an iso setting resulted in horrendous noise levels,requiring some experimental processing on my part(newb)with dss and ps. it's been a personal goal of mine to image this target for ages so i'll stick with it untill i get another chance. hope i have'nt ruined it!
