+Graham Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 I decided to try something completely different tonight. First attempt at the Cocoon Neb. I did a quick mod to my set up this afternoon by gluing my LP / IR EOS Clip filter into the front of the T Ring adapter. The difference it has made is amazing. In my excitement I forgot to take the flats but I think it turned out alright. Helios 200 Newt. Atik 314 L 27 x 300 second subs. 21 Bias frames. Stacked in DSS. Quick polish up in PS 6. Close up.

Guest ben72 Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 nice one Graham, after your reply to my post, wasn't sure you'd get the expo time...you nailed it. new target for me... interesting mod... how did you keep the filter square to the t ring adapter?

+Graham Posted April 27, 2013 Author Share Posted April 27, 2013 I glued it to the inside face. The filter is bigger than the aperture so it stuck to the face thus keeping it square to the light train. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
