That's quite a nice image. When you say Bicolour, did you map the Ha to red, the OIII to green and blue?
It's a shame about your full hard disk, they're really quite cheap these days, sometimes I don't even bother to back them up, I just copy everything over to a new (much larger) disk and then install that. Using a Mac for imaging makes this a snap.
Thats different Greg, trippy looking object, nice smooth result, dig the central cluster, like a mini rossette
Appreciate your captures you share here, very inspiring for many, im sure Top show

Ha to red O111 to blue and (Ha +O111)/2 to green.
Yes they are cheap but quite flimsy and easily fail.

Thanks Steve. I'll take some more between galaxies! I think it also needs some decent seeing as its quite small.

Thanks for that. It is quite unusual and I appreciate your encouraging words.
I like the colours Greg and with more data this will be a cracker!
Actually I made a start on this too some time ago, at the end of a galaxy imaging run none the less ie a fill-in image ....must go back and complete it.

Thanks Mike. Yes its a worthwhile target. I imaged it in Ha only a few years ago and always meant to come back to it. I think it needs decent seeing as well, so a night with good seeing and the moon up would be a good time.
Thanks Ross. These LMC nebulas are a rich source of imaging targets for us. I see a massive rise in the number of them being imaged now which is great. Hardly any were being imaged a year or two ago beyond the Tarantula or widefield images of the LMC.
Really weird shapes in that nebula! I like the colour mapping. I often find Ha to red and OIII to both blue and green works well, but it doesn't work in this case.
