Eta at 130mm.

Hi,

Here's one I've been working on for a while, it's always difficult to work out the best look for Eta when processing. There's so many stars in the field it takes some time to find the balance between stars and nebula.

Telescope 8” f/4 astrograph on a HEQ Pro 5 mount, orion mini guider.
Unmodded Canon 1100D piggy backed at 130 mm F/L F/5.6
12 x180 sec subs ISO 800,
11 dark frames, 9 flat frames and 11 bias.
Stacked in DSS and post process in Phototshop.
Cheers,

Justin.

Looks not bad - could you post a larger version?

Hi,

Thanks for the comment.

Here's a larger version, it's only in medium quality format otherwise too large to post.

Cheers,

Justin.

That's still not big enough.
You would need to link to a website - say photobucket -
where you can post 1 MByte images for free.
1920 x 1080 pixels is a good size.
