IC2948/Thackeray's Globules

[[1ponders] (Paul)]

Thanks Paul. The shading was one of the reasons I wanted to revisit. I could see faint shading in a 20D/WO72 colour shot and in the SXVF-H9 shot and I wondered how prominent I could get it. I reeeeally want to go longer.

Thanks Doug, nice of you to notice.

Woo-Hoooooo, nice work Mr. Paul Ponderosa

One of my favourite objects to image, but I haven't done them for a few years now.
You have captured the Globules beautifully
Just imagine how BIG those little Globules are!!!!

Thanks H, Frank and Werner. Since getting my new mount a whole world of new possibilities have opened up. All those little obscure objects that get spotted and I wished I could use some longer focal length are now possible. Its very exciting. I will be progressing to rgb eventually Humayan, but there is just something about mono that i really like. That and the 'quick snap it while you can' weather we've been having for the past 12 months.

Now that sounds like a man that's needed an observatory, and is glad its all working......
Great to hear you're maximising your enjoyment of the addiction Paul.

I think I went with 15 minute subs with the RC8 on this target. However I reckon 20-30 minutes could produce better results from my gear and at some point I intend to revisit this object.
