Guest peter shah Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 (edited) I managed to get this one finished last night condition were variable throughout with last night being the worst seeing in a while. Its only taken about a month to grab enough data for it which is unheard of here in the UK and I wouldn't normally image this time of year as the skies don't get very dark....glad I did. I will be stripping the scope down for a service over next few weeks ready for the new season, I have a few projects from last year that need finishing.Exposure times were 3hours in Red, 2hours in Blue and 1 and a half hours in Green with 3hours of H-alpha and 6hours of Oxygen III giving a total exposure time of 16 and a half hours. All sub exposures were 30mins each.Thanks for lookingPeter Edited July 1, 2014 by peter shah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes Ron the OIII and H-alpha I thought might be Okay but the real surprise was the wider band RGB I wasn't expecting to get as much as I did.
