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!
This Orion Nebula was taken early this year through the window in Singapore.
Due to the small gap of the sky between the window top and the top of the nearby HDB flats, only can manage a short exposure.
Total RGB integration time is 30 mins.
One sub each.
Bias and dark subtracts.
Camera - QSI 683
After stacking, before processing ...light pollution.

Amazing! May not suspect it's taken from Singapore if you didn't mention it! Inspiration for local APers to try push the limit of their AP setup and skills in Singapore.
