Hi. Got my leave pass and got out under some stars on Friday and Saturday night.
I spent a good time looking at an image i took of NGC 1097, scratching my head about where this Sn was. The it dawned on me i was looking at the wrong galaxy lol
So Saturday night/ Sunday morning i returned determined to get something from the weekends ok conditions.
1. NGC1365 with Sn. 500D-SWED 80 PRO-EQ3- 30mins total@ 30sec unguided.
2. M45.-500D-SWED 80PRO-EQ3-1hr 14 min @60sec unguided.
This is the first time i have tried imaging both a Galaxy and M45 through the ED
I am experiencing noisy images due to the imagine time temperature and my dark frame library needs updating to longer exposures and more of them.
Thanks for looking.
Steve.
P.s. If anyone has some tips on how to process 32 bit TIFF rational files saved from DSS, i'm all ears
I wasted a few hours trying to get PS to use those types of file to process the images. I will just be sticking to 16 bit TIFF for now.
