+Graham Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 Well after a catologue of problems with my newt and camera I set up the 127mm Frac sorted the camera and got back to what I love to do, imaging. Took this tonight through a veil of high cloud. 16 - 300 second subs at ISO 800 5 Darks 11 Flats Stacked in DSS Quick brush up in PS6. I have had to crop this to the extream to get rid of the rubbish that is still stuck to my sensor but I am quite pleased with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Graham Posted March 31, 2013 Author Share Posted March 31, 2013 Tobias - thanks Mick - When I read of other people troubles with the CCD side I wonder myself mick. I would like to have a go at some RGBL stuff. Andy - Not as yet, now I have the frac up and running I will take my time with the newt, Strip it right down and flock it.

Guest Eddy Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 Nice Graham, was it guided or not as stars seem a bit oval, by doing that m51 also looks stretched, try dump the bad subs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Graham Posted March 31, 2013 Author Share Posted March 31, 2013 Hi Eddy. Noticed that about the stars myself this morning. Too tired to see it last night as I had been laying concrete all day. I must have missed a couple of bad subs when I went through it. I will have another look at this if I get time today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough Like most of us, in a rush to process and then realise the following morning you've left some bad subs or accidently kicked out good subs aswell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
