M 83 Southern Pinwheel Galaxy
As I am interested in viewing images taken by members in light-polluted sites, I make my first image contribution to IceinSpace. This image was taken from Heidelberg, a northern suburb of Melbourne, on May 9th 2013 using an SBIG ST-8300M camera on a 250-mm f/6 Newtonian telescope.
Total exposure of 2hr 48m in L RGB Ha in the ratio of 48:24:24:24:48 (min) Processed in CCDStack and Photoshop with the appropriate dark,bias and flatfield master frames. Both a full size frame and a cropped frame are attached.
