Holy Moly! That's awesome Phil.... Welcome to IIS, and tell us more about your setup!
Cheers
Hi Robby thanks for your reply . I have STL11000M and a Televue 101mm F/5.4 on a G11 mount. Only had setup for couply of weeks this was the first photo taken with this setup. Also have LX200 10" GPS , Orion 80mm ED
Cannon 300D toucam 31mm neg 22mm neg 13mm neg 2.5mm neg 2x powermate,4xpowermate,2.5xpowermate and alot more stuff.
That is awesome. Quite easily one of the best shots I've seen of this object. So many times, the red of the hydrogen alpha saturates the image and you can't get a feel for the object. You've captured it so that I, at least, can make out the shape of the object.
That's a marvellous shot - I bet you get some nice skies up in Rocky.
Bird (Anthony Wesley) from Canberra is one of Australia's best planetary imagers, and he's going to Rockhampton next week for a week or two for some Jupiter imaging.. he's determined it's the best place in Australia for planetary imaging, due to latitude and lack of jetstream!
wonderfully dark background! so many prople try to catch the maximum amount of gas and end up washing the image out in red.... you have given sooo much detail there! thanks for sharing it.
it's a bit of a benchmark for others i think
No do not no how to make a web site yet one day i may get around to making one
PM me Phil and I will reply sending my email address so you can send me a larger picture if you like and I will put it on the web for you thats if it suits you.
I am sure a larger picture will do it more justice.
