All the data I have all put together to give this image of the Witch’s Broom nebula.
This image of the Veil nebula in Cygnus incorporates all the data I have on the object. So this image includes Hyperstar III on the C11 data, Sky90 (2-frame mosaic including narrowband) data, and the Canon 200mm lenses with the … Continue reading
This is a composite image comprising 8-hours of 20-minute subs taken last night on the Canon 200mm prime lenses, together with a 32-hour 2-framer taken on a single Sky90 including Ha and OIII narrowband data. It still needs a LOT … Continue reading
