Rosette nebula and widefield Eta Carina
Hi all
2 more images I took last night and finishged processing.
Rosette nebula, I thought Id try for it as it started to set but was clear of the house from where the scope is.
2 x 10 mins ISO 400, 10 inch F5.6 newt. UHCS filter used, processed in Iris.
Widefield Eta Carina, 50mm F1.8 Canon lens stopped down to F4.5. Also UHCS filter sitting on front of lens. Single 250 sec shot ISO 1600, this time with the in camera noise reduction on. I had to do this because the previous night I couldnt properly subtract the darks with Iris when I took a similar shot, I was left with green spots all over, wether that was because I dont yet have a uv/ir cut filter I dont know. (there was a cluster of green spots in one of the star clusters on the pic?) Anyway the in camera n/r works better for this shot. It was through high cloud as well, I cant wait to try again on a dark clear night. Stopping the lens down gives sharper stars but Im hoing the uv/ir filter may make em even sharper.
