The Butterffly Cluster(M6)

Hi Guys

Ok,so this is M6, and I've got to say It gave me a hard time with gradients.

Not enough exposure time for the faint stuff in the field so was noisy...at least the color was.

Also was getting very low so the seeing crapped out,but what the heck haven't done a shot of It so here It is.

Obviously a sub standard piece of work but I like the overall composition with large dusty structures around the cluster.

Definitely visit this next year to go deep ! I'm sure I'll do It justice then.


details:

Object: M6

Exposures: Lum:4min x 15/RGB:4min x 4 each channel

Telescope: BabyQ/Reducer

Camera: ML 8300

Mount: GPDX/SS2/guide/50mm/PHD

Software: AA5/CS4


Hope you enjoy anyway.
