M42 almost finished.

[mill (Martin)]

Ok here is my latest M42 after throwing out loads of images because the kids had bumped the mount and did not tell me
Had to redo 2 nights of imaging because i got a small field rotation.
Lost the count of stacked pics and all the times
Not happy with it yet, so i have to do more pics and get rid of some banding.

Comments welcome and tips also.

what a nice deep clean image !The finished image will be a jaw dropper for sure.
So, Martin, are the kids washing dishes for the next 6 months??

Thank you David.

I just told them off
Going to build a permanent obs anyway.
Just wish i was better at image processing

"Just wish i was better at image processing"


Me too,


As for the kids, ah well, what can one say, mine continually turn on the bathroom light during my imaging sessions which bathes me in a nice glow.

Somethings are just unavoidable. But your results are just fantastic, can't wait to see the final image.

Coming along beautifully mate!

Thank you Darren (long time no hear ).

just cover that window with something black when you are imaging
Or better, lock the kids up

Thank you Alex, it just takes ages this way

Sorry I've haven't been around much, back into work mode and very little time when I'm not trying to set-up the rig after work and before the other half wakes up.

Sleep is something I'm planning on in the next life!

Yep. there sure is a lot of time and effort, blood sweat and beers (err.. tears..) that goes into mega-data imaging.. But at the end of the day, getting to your destination makes the long road worth walking.
