CCD vs Film? Lots of time vs no patience? Alright, this is your place to discuss all the astrophotography what's and what's not. You can discuss about techniques, accessories, cameras, whatever....just make sure you also post some nice photos here too!
Here's the latest attempt in grabbing some colour data for Tarantula from a dark sky site in Australia. However, time was running out as the moon rose after midnight, limiting exposures of the red and green channel. Nevertheless, making do with whatever data there is, here's the result. Added some luminance as well, image may appear to be a bit on the blue side due to the lack of sufficient data from the other channels. But the Tarantula core itself is not solely HA dominated, and has lots of response in blues and greens as well. Have fun!
