Rho Ophiuchus Widey 70mm

[astronobob (Bob)]

Had a few nights over weekend and decided to go the Lens for one of em ! 1st time on this long awaited target, glad its still there ? bit of time spent on position framing, kinda like a jelly fish ?
A Sneak Peek, this is a quick 1hrs process of the jpg images, like a practice before hitting the Raws : ) There is a lot wrong with this result actually, tho I was not expecting half the color that is in it : ) pretty coool I think ! Hope you do too.
Image = 15 x 150 sec, F 3.5

Nah - terrible - looks like a firework....
I can't wait to see the raws stacked and sorted - it'll be so beautiful.
Great shot Bob

Looks good to me Bob. Looking forward to the final.

Bob,

I like the colours and the detail - I can't wait for the result of using the raws instead!

Cheers,
Mario

Wow, what a field of view! For less than 40 mins of total exposure there is a lot in there, you must be very happy with this preliminary result Bob

Great field Bob. Love the framing too. What lens and f-stop did you use?

Hi Bob,

That's nicely done!

What lens were you using a zoom or fixed 70mm?

Cheers,

Justin.
