Well, like for many others on the east coast, the weather
finally cleared here in Newcastle on Sat and Sun nights
Warm weather was on the table but nothing
a cold beer doesn't sooth
Saturday had a bit of annoying cloud floating around on occassions which were a pain (and of course only appeared right as I started my first exposure bracket
) but Sunday night was perfect, even the seeing wasn't too bad, still only average but at least not pure soup
The NJP mount even loaded up like a Donkey was like a
laser guided missile all night (without PEC)
Anyway....
Here is the Vela Super Nova remnant ...probably like you haven't seen it before
as once again I have used narrowband data to produce an RGB like result

my favourite bit showing the details in the amazing filaments (75%)
Blue Poles
High Res Negative
Who knows...and I know it would be rather strange for me to do
...may even produce another version in the coming days
