Dan,
Thank you
Yea I was very happy knowing I got get away with 60min. I love the RC8, my master plan is to do NB with the QHY9 and then do LRGB with my D800 (for bright objects) and combine. Just easier than having to use RGB filters. Less overall imaging time means I'm more awake at work hehe.
Alistair,
Lol! That's actually very creative, I was wondering why there was no name for it when I searched the 'net. We should officially call it the B&B nebula
Thank you yes it all works together well (for now atleast). Agreed with the contrast, I'm just taking darks now so that should help with the image stretching. What Ha & O3 are you talking about? Tarantula?
jjjjnettie & Laurie,
Thank you
yes 5 months has been far too long. Missed most of the good summer targets when melbourne's skies are not dumping rain!
