Half chiken and first light RC12

[gvanhau (Geert)]

Hello this is my first image after having tuned my 12" RC


Capture info: TPO RC 12" - MI250 - Atik 383 - Astrondon 5nm filters
Ha 5h, OIII 4,5 h SII 8h
Maxim DL-ACP for capture, PixInsight for processing
~0,53 arcsec/pixel
I used no flattener (have none for this telescope) but I think don't need one until I use a larger chip.

I almost doubled the expo on SII because I found it very noisy.

Small picture looses a lot so here half res picture https://www.flickr.com/photos/astro_...56299/sizes/h/ and here fullsize: https://www.flickr.com/photos/astro_...56299/sizes/o/

I'm not very sure/confortable with the processing, so comments welcome.

I like the colour palette Geert Plenty of details too enjoy as well.

Nice work

I spent a month in Vitacura a couple of years ago and don't think I once saw the sky for more than a few minutes. Didn't think you would've been able to get so much data. Well done.

That's very nice. Some really good details in there. Not over processed.

Nice you were in Chile. If you come again, let me know.
Fortunately, we can use narrow band imaging else another story would be
