Here are my offering for the month.
NGC253 & M27 - similar runs for both
* Scope: Takahashi FS-102 with F6 focal reducer
* Imaging device: Baader Modified 350D
* Mount: AP Mach1GTO
* Guiding: Orion SSAG with PHD
* Exposure details: 450sec x 15subs, ISO 400
* Stacking method: SigmaClip Combine in Maxim DL with 15 darks & 20 flat frames
* Summary of post processing: Levels, Curves, Saturation, Sharpening, Reduce Noise
* Darkness of imaging site: Camp Duckadang
* Date(s) image taken: 12-08-10
I'm kicking myself that I didn't take the focal reducer off for these image. Neither of these objects fill the field of view, and I'm sure I would have achieved higher magnification without straying into the coma ridden periphery. Also not much colour in NGC253 - Fred sets such a high standard...
