This is a total of 24x10 minutes Ha, 21x10 minutes OIII and 23x10 minutes SII taken with the Televue NP127is/FLI imaging system that I am testing on my Paramount ME which has just ...

Markarian Chain + Neighbours
Hi I don't normally do galaxies especially the smaller ones as I use a short focal length and large chip sensor and because of light pollution but occasionally when the conditions are right and there are no narrow band targets I will have a go at some LRGB. I've always wanted to have a go at this su...

IC443 - Jellyfish Nebula in HST palette
Hi I just finished this a few nights ago, this has taken several nights to do due to weather and false starts, it is 24x10 minutes Ha, 26x10 minutes OIII and 22x10 minutes SII. The seeing conditions were very poor for the SII data with some very thin misty cloud throughout the evening. This was take...

M42 - Orion Nebula in HST palette
Hi This is a bit of a short overall exposure time of just over 3 hours total (normally I do more than that for each filter!). I have a very small window in which to get any imaging time on this subject due to my house blocking the east sky and then the roof of my shed almost blocking the guiding sco...

Colourful California
Hi I have been busy on this for a few weeks trying to finish it between the rain and cloud. This is a difficult subject in OIII as I couldn't detect any at all on the downloaded subframes. Anyway, after a fair bit of stretching I've got an end result that I'm happy with. I've just got a new computer...

This is 24x10 minutes Luminanace and 12x10 minutes each for RGB. It was taken over 4 nights. The full size version is at the following link http:...

Ghost of Cassiopeia in HST palette
Hi This subject is very rarely imaged in the full narrow band palette as there is virtually no OIII and little SII compared to the Ha. It is more common to image it in LRGB or HaLRGB combined. I have done the latter but I wanted to see if there was anything that could be done with just the tradition...
