[Hagar (Doug)]

Here is my first clear night image in ages. The sky was clear but lots of upper level turbulance making seeing not the best. An interesting night to be outside with the temprature dropping well below 0 here and at one point it was as if the sky lit up with a phosphorecence. This was obviously the moisture in the air freezing.

The image: NGC5128 with a total of 5 hrs exposure.
70 minutes of each colour and 90 min of luminance. All in 10 minute subs.

Telescope: GSO RC8 8"
Camera: QHY9 with QHY filters
No calibration files.

Processed with CCDStack, MaximDL and PS CS4.
The image still has some shutter atrifacts on the bright stars. I forgot to turn on the clamping filter in the camera control.
Comments welcome, thanks for looking.
The second image has been manipulated to give a little more star colour.
