dawson Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 That is good. Lots of red given its unmodded, if that makes sense. Hope for us unmodded lot after all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+RonC Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 Cracking image, like the colours a lot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brantuk Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 It's great seeing what the 115 and a dslr can do - very nice image Francis - there's hope for me yet lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fwm891 Posted November 27, 2013 Author Share Posted November 27, 2013 James/Ron/Kim, Many thanks - I enjoy using an unmodified camera for Astro and the colouration it produces. Doesn't work on all objects but there's quite a few out there that unmodified cameras will reproduce very well. The 115 with a dslr is a really nice combo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Ibbo Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 that is as you say a cracking match looking very nice-like the colour in the stars Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest peter shah Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 That's a beautiful shot with a good colour balance and star colour....with the mod it would look slightly more red but this object does have a pinkish hue to it....I like it a lot.

Guest foundaplanet Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 Cracker, really like it. Sometimes I feel that the unmodded camera gives a nicer and more subtle effect. This for me is a beauty... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+RonC Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 Is it possible to stack images from a modded and unmodded camera if the same settings are used?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fwm891 Posted November 28, 2013 Author Share Posted November 28, 2013 Thanks again all for the comments - really encouraging. Ron: the above is a stack of 6x10min frames - these were stacked in Photoshop manually but there are loads of programs out there that will handle images in various file types.

Thanks Peter, The original has more saturation than shown above probably from the uploading and susequent compression Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
