M8 in Sii

multiweb (Marc) · #1 05-08-2015, 02:41 PM

Managed to clock 7h over two nights on the lagoon including last night. Still a little noisy in the shadows. Will post a blend later on but the Sii by itself looks pretty tight already.

Full fields are below:

I have a HD version here. [1.91MB - 1920x1437]
and a 1:1 version here [4.85MB - 3329x2491]

5min subs shot with a FSQ106N and QHY9 - Baader Sii 8nm on G11.

Thanks Russel. Almost looks like a LUM. I believe Sii highlights shock fronts ahead or behind the Ha. So it kinds of outlines them.

Looks excellent Marc.

tremendous amount of detail. Can't wait to see the end result!

That FSQ does an amazing job!

Looking great Marc. Not something I would have thought to do. NB version in progress not doubt?

Got some Ha but not with the FSQ. Might get some after astrofest and Oiii too to do a HST palette.

Thanks guys.

I'm still struggling to keep the noise down although the lack of moon made things easier that night. Might get into the habit of dithering again.

Hi, Marc,

For SII, that's amazingly good. Lots of detail where it should be, and looking very true - no hint of spurious SII where there shouldn't be any. Great work.

Best,
Mike

That looks pretty tight for S11 data.

Greg.

Stunning image Marc. Can't wait to see the finished version.

Too many stars for narrowband Marc. You're doing it all wrong.

Cool image. Keen to see the end result.
