Horse head and monkey Head

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!

Hi,

I tried to get some OIII of horse head nebula but came out nothing. so no OIII data to get colour pic of horse head. here is only HA to make this three types of images. Each day only can take 3 exposure due to limitation of window top level.

Main Scope: 120mm Refractor and two filters combination
Exposure: 12.30.+ min each and total exposure was 4hr 47min 30sec.
camera: DSI PRO II with cooling.
Guide camera and scope: DSI Pro 1, ST80 Refractor
Mount: Orion Atlas EQ-G

I guess, it will require 7 to 9 hr for perfect image.
