Guest ollypenrice Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 (edited) This is based on an FSQ85 HaLRGB of just 7 hours, though at F3.9. I added the recent Head/NGC2023 details from the image in the 14 inch along with some data for the Flame in the TEC140. The processing of the basic widefield was complicated by thin high haze scattering the blue. Mixing FLs is a great way to go though. Registar is the key.

Guest Eddy Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Very lovely, it must take a lot of skill to balance the colours, contrast and noise levels in the merged image. I love it as per normal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olly To produce these kinda images you must have a lot of skill I'm guessing you need pretty much noise free images to do this, meaning a lot of data, was it just that close up of the head you posted recently? that you merged? You can't even tell where it joins, stunning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't even tell where it joins, stunning Yes, that's the image I merged. You have to feather them in and resist the temptation to apply them at full opacity. If you do, the extra resolution is too much and stands out. If you have some long FL data which is noisy it may still look great when shrunk down to fit the widefield. I've added really quick, noisy long FL data to widefields but it still tightens them up. Olly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyboy1970 Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 Fantastic shot Olly, Alnitak well under control and the detail in the wall behind the horse is outstanding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
