Eta Carinae Nebula

Just a few days after the Total Lunar Eclipse, on Friday night, I did a longer run on this target. The sky was cloudless and the wind was near non-existent.

Thankfully, we can never get too much of this nebula, can we?

Not bad, Chris! Looks a little green on my screen?

I hope we can't get too much of it. I'm working on an Eta myself

Cheers,
Rick.

I might have a tweak with it later to check the colour balance - I hadn't altered that during the processing from memory.

Was it a bit green for you on the astrobin version too?

I get a 404 error on the Astrobin URL.

Well, that's not good, is it? I wonder what's happening there - I know other people can see the image as they've "liked" it. Could you go to astrobin via the link in my signature, and see if you can view the image from my gallery? If you can, what URL does it give you?

Seems I've been a noob with the URL sharing. Fixed.

Going via the generic Astrobin link works fine (and I still think it looks a little greenish).

If I copy the direct link from your post above I get this: "http://www.astrobin.com/91547/%EF%BB%BF"

Yeah, I realized I used the wrong URL for sharing. Should work better now.

I've done some minor tweaks to the colour balance. How does this one look to you?

Thanks - sometimes I lose the plot with the colour balance.
