SMC Treats

[Addos (Adam)]

Starting to forget what a cloudless night is like... but after getting bored with pointing the scope at the Helix constantly, found some stuff in the SMC that seemed to frame pretty decent, so I present what I'm calling "SMC Treats"

Captured on an Evostar 100 with the trusty L-extreme from Bortle 6 North Bris. Sampled at 1.25"/px with about 28 hrs total int.

Main objects in frame are NGC 346, 371, 395, and over on the right, ESO 51-20.

Slightly less uber compressed version on my bin link

Hi Adam

Just had a look at the hires.
You have some great data there and at this stage your processing is not showing it as well as it could be.

Your tarantula is very well done, try following the same steps?
Do the tutorials etc.

Great effort

Hi there Peter

Thanks for the comment!

Yes, same processing flow. Bear in mind, these objects way smaller FOV than the Tarantula, and using an OSC with dual narrowband which will mean my Ha capture wont be quite the same as with a mono camera.

To which tutorials do you refer?
