Battling strong breezes at times...AGAIN
....
This field is just next to the Eta Carina Nebula (in the lower right corner of the full frame image) and is centred on the cool Gabriela Misteral Nebula, which I haven't imaged before except when I juuust squeezed it in, in a
Ha wide field camera lens shot (top left) back in 06.
The wind picked up during the colour data and was variable in dirrection so elongated my stars in different directions
, so it was a processing nightmare
Anywaaaaay, becasue of the moon I decided to do a narrowband version
The attachment is only a small sized crop so see the links for larger files and the full frame - as usual all details can be found under each image
Since I have discovered my monitor is crappy I am not sure how these will actually look, I did try and calibrate it on Marcus's calibration page but it is a crude and cheap TV basically
...so I'd be interested in some feedback

Close up of Gabriela (small file)
and...
The Whole Album
Bit of fun and when the wind died down it was lovely to be out watching the Milky Way rise in the East into a dark sky in the small hours....
