Some prawning from last night.

[multiweb (Marc)]

Nice and warm last night so dusted off the hyperstar and went out to play a bit. Did 4 panels in Ha around the prawn 5x5min. Might try to extend it towards the 'wolf' nebula tonight if I get a chance.

Big one here.[full field]. Collimation didn't move much since I last touched it so that was a pleasant surprise. Ordered a spacer for the camera though. The QHY9 back focus is different from my QHY8 so to get a perfect flat field I'll need to sort that out.

Thanks for looking.

PS: Added a couple more.

The wolf Nebula, 2 panels 10x5min. Big one here.
and
The Dark Tower, 2 panels 10x5min. Big one here.
and
The Swan, 2 panels 10x5min. Big one here.

Marc,

The Ha with hyperstar certainly brings out the background nebulosity nicely. Great to look at - and only 5x5 to boot!

Thanks Mario. Yeah very fast rig.

Great results in an unreasonably short time, Marc!

Unreasonable imaging, aka gunshot imaging.

It's grey at night.

Nice work!
I love these mosaics, it's great to see these objects in context

Thanks Hugh. Doesn't take long to do cool mosaics with the hyperstar.

These look awesome Marc, well done!

Very nice, Marc! I'm becoming a big fan of B&W H-alpha images.

Great hots Marc. As we speak I'm down at Wiruna taking my last sub of the prawn. Moving onto 346 next.

Star images look a little wonky in places (meeeah who cares) but the nebulosity depth is great

Thanks Mike. Too right. Focus shifted a little but I kept shooting. By the time I was on the swan it was out.
