such amazing galaxy work James! I love the dust lane details. You da man! and I like both versions.

Nice capture james. I really Love these Galaxies so much!

Many thanks!

Thank you James for putting this video together. I prefer your second version. I, too, often process my images multiple times. In fact, I will begin processing even before I have gathered all of my data just so that I can begin experimenting and thinking about which techniques will work best with that particular object. Wonderful final result!

@DSOImager 10 месяцев назад

Thanks David! I too will process the images while still collecting data. Its very useful.

I was capturing the same target, but I didn't think I can do something nice from it, so I stopped. Now I see it's possible! Thanks for the motivation. Beautiful image.

@DSOImager 10 месяцев назад

Thanks, and you're welcome :)

Beautiful image. Definitely liking the second run more - the core looks much more natural and although brighter, you can see more dust lane detail immediately near the core i think.

Thanks Logan!

Beautiful image James! I agree with you about the first run, the second is definitely better, I like the core, great job👍I don’t have the reach with my little scope, but nice target! Clear skies!

@DSOImager 10 месяцев назад

Thanks Simon! Your Esprit 120 at its native F7 should do a pretty good job on medium sized galaxies like this one.

@SimonsAstro 10 месяцев назад

@@DSOImager Maybe I’ll give it a go! Although it’s out of action at present! I’ve just taken off the ASIAIR and put the MeleQ3 on, will now be using Nina, but not had time to learn how to use it yet🤣 So currently using the AskarFRA400!

Cracking image James. I've used the Adam Block starless DBE for a while now, certainly works far better than the regular DBE workflow. This target is definitely going on my todo list, I have finally bit the bullet and ordered a 12" RC for doing galaxy work. Capturing 20+ hours of data with our Scottish weather is going to take an eternity though!

@DSOImager 10 месяцев назад

A 12" RC? Nice! I will be very interested in hearing about your user experience once you've had some time with it. :)
