IC4406 - visible and near infrared comparison
This was my second NIR shot with this telescope and I put it side by side with a visible shot of this planetary. Conditions were much better this time and it's a better quality image but the NIR shot isn't very different from the visible.

Cheers

Steve

Thanks Louie. There is different detail there but it's fairly subtle.

Thanks Rick. Perhaps not as dramatic as I had hoped but it's nice to get it done.
