Ngc 6188

Shot almost 13hrs of data on this, which admittedly isn't much, but I only ended up using 6hrs 55mins of it... had some of the worst seeing I've ever seen here and I think SGP must have stuffed up the autofocus pretty badly as well because some of the FWHM was ridiculous...

Anyway, pretty happy with what I pulled out of this short integration under less than favourable conditions.

Big one here

As mentioned on AB, Lee it’s a wonderful image!
As sharp as a tack & interesting and original composition.

Maybe It’s an angry monster because it wants to get rid of the tiny rocking horse on his nose!

Brilliant, cool colour palette too

Thanks again Andy :-) I've never really "figured out" NB palettes, but I've been happy with my last couple of images. Glad you like it!

Another stunner Lee. Very 3D which makes it particularly interesting and a great colour palette as well.

A winner. I think I will do 300 second narrowband as well as sometimes 10mins can blow out the brighter stars.

Greg.

A great result despite the woes. The Cosmic Rocking Horse (very conspicuous around 5 o'clock) came out superbly. Faint dust lanes also looking good.

Thanks Greg :-)

I still blow out the brighter stars at 300s on my 8"... I'm not sure you'll avoid it, but surely you'll blow out fewer stars than with 600s. I don't usually care if some blow out, but if you do you'll have to do HDR.
