Sagittarius

Hi all,
Another image with the FSQ106ED and QHY8, a few hours only of Sagittarius centered on the IC1283/1284 nebula complex and Sagittarius star cloud.

With such a wide range of brightnesses, I found this image particularly difficult to process. The final result is ok, but I can see myself processing it all over again real soon!

All the best

Very nice Eddie, Looking forward to taking some wide field images myself with the QHY8 when my FSQ106 arrives.

Hi Doug, thanks for that!

I was quite impressed with the FSQ from day 1, I hope you will be too!

All the best

Eddie

Thanks Alex!

As I knew I would be, I'm in the middle of reprocessing it

Possibly a little more subdued, but I am generally happier with this version.

I think I'll leave it at this now, it was getting a little late last night...
