Dear All,
Of late I've settled into the habit of capturing 2-3 targets every night in narrowband and repeating the same for a few weeks until I have sufficient data. Advantage is that I get each target when it is at the zenith and once it moves to the murk, I slew to my next target. Been doing the Veil, Pelican, & Pacman this way. Here's the first one.
Dates taken: 7 nights across July, August, and September in between cloud breaks!
Scope: C8 Hyperstar
Camera: SXV-H16
Filters: Astronomik Ha, OIII, SII
Guiding: ST80, DFK
Mount: EQ6
Exposures: 5 hours Ha, 14 hours OIII, 9 hours SII all in 10 minute subs.
Processing: Stacked in Maxim DL, DBE in PixInsight LE, Stretched and Noise Reduced in CS3
Comments and criticism welcome please
Thanks,
Vincent.
