Another attempt at the Eagle

Still need more data for this one and there's a few movement issues I need to resolve with the way my camera/filter wheel is attached but I'm getting closer to an image of the Eagle that I'm happy with.

Also not sure if I like the red areas in this image, I prefer my HST palette images to have more yellow/orange and blue colours but I guess this neb is just relatively bright through the SII filter.

Ha – 7x10min
OIII – 8x5min + 9x10min
SII – 20x5min + 9x10min
SW 120 f5 / EQ6 / Atik 314L+

Thanks for looking

Cheers Larry


Also I've been playing with the processing again and I've got a version I'm happier with. Also updated the better quality one on my blog.
