M27 - bw webcam

Pierre · #1 12-06-2006, 08:16 PM

Hello,

m27 as imaged in the North East of France.

507x10s exposures with a bw sensor Toucam.
Astrograph: Takahashi Mewlon 180 w/ 0.5 focal reducer
Mount: Tak em200usd3
Date: june 8th 2006

Processing with Iris; gaussian: a few

.

Very short exposures are due to the fact that the webcam is not moonlight proof

Clear skies.
Pierre.

Nice shot Pierre.

M27 is one of my favourite Planetary Nebs.

Love the moon.......not

Nice image Pierre, love B&W just like the view through my Ep.

[1ponders]: this neb is also one of my favourite too

. Maybe i will retry to capture it with LOTS of LONG exposures.

Mick: thanks. The visual sight with the Mewlon (even with clear Ep) is far from this pic. And you?

I might have to give it a go with the Sac 4.2 and see how it comes out.

You wouldn't have any M57 lying around there have you? I'd like to see how the B/W ToUcam captures that.

Very nice Pierre. Just love those tight, symmetrical stars from the Mewlon!

Cheers

Dennis

With a dark sky and a 300mm scope no problems Pierre.
