Ngc6823

yep - more Astrofest processing. This one was a little under 3 hours LRGB with the RGB binned 2x2. SN10/QSI and processed in PI. I found this one quite difficult due to the busy star field.

Advice gratefully received.

The thumbnail is heavily compressed however here's the full size image

Thanks for looking.

That turned out alright Peter. I remember seeing that one on your screen. Bloody faint. Couldn't even make up the spire. Excellent result IMHO.

Cheers Marc. I've had this on my to-do list for quite a while. Not sure why now. As you point out faint and lots of stars.

Thanks Troy. Guess that's because it is faint and has too many stars.

Looks like something for Loch Ness.

Very cool object, Peter!

I'm not familiar with this one Peter. Thanks for sharing.
Really nice star profiles your getting from the scope. Seems to be a great rig you've assembled now.
