Eta Carinae Nebula

My first post of a shot I took last night before the clouds chased me away.

Some work to be done on it, focus is not spot-on (need a mask for that) and I don't entirely understand post stacked processing yet so this could be a lot better because when I fiddled in MaximDL last night with filters and processing I got so many variants I picked the first group and went to bed

Equipment:
  • William Optics GT-81 triplet (Fsomething because I used a focal reducer and forget now what that takes it down to) on Paramount MX mount
  • OSSAG
  • QHY8
  • 10 minute guided stub and 3 * 5 minute un-guided, no dark frames or flats applied.
  • Average stack in MaximDL
  • Processed on an iPad (!) using Photoshop CS.

Cheers,
Simon.
