Guest ben72 Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 (edited) with all this weather i finally got a chance to dust off the gear and have a stab at the Flame and Horsehead nebulas. pic looks a bit frosty as seeing wasn't great and it started to mist over towards the end but managed 20x5min subs.

dawson Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 (edited) Lovely. Nice how that star beams straight out at you. It's quite impressive and very well framed. The red looks slightly grainy on my screen. What ISO did you use, or is that the mist causing trouble? Great stuff.

Guest devil74 Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 That's beautiful Ben...I'm no expert but the Horsehead is a brilliant target, it's my partners favourite too and she knows less than me. Oh btw the diffraction spikes really add something to the shot..false tho they are I can see why some imagers actually want them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JD hi James, i shot this at iso800 with a DSLR this was a hard one to process, the right side of the shot is all Ha with almost none on the left. add to that the misty halos around the stars...... i think i did alright but may have a tinker Edited February 3, 2014 by ben72 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
