It’s the power of f-number
Noel Carboni compared two sets of M101 data taken using two different imaging systems (but the same imaging camera) at the New Forest Observatory. The top image shows in excess of 5-hours (total) data, probably nearer 8-hours, taken using the … Continue reading
Rosette nebula composite – processing by Noel Carboni
Noel Carboni added that recent Hyperstar III data to our earlier Sky 90/M25C one-shot colour and narrowband data to give this stunning result!
Flaming Star nebula – composite image
This is last night’s Sky-Watcher data (2-hours) composited with the earlier Sky 90 data (11 and a half hours) – so 13 and a half hours total into this one so far 🙂

The Virgo/Coma galaxy cluster in negative B&W
In order to see all the galaxies and the asteroids more easily – here’s the image below in negative B&W 🙂 Enjoy!
The Virgo/Coma galaxy cluster featuring Markarian’s Chain
A slightly more careful processing of the earlier data. At least 4 asteroids in there and North is to the right 🙂
The Virgo/Coma galaxy cluster including Markarian’s Chain
I found a couple more frames lurking in the archive, as well as realising that I’d lost a few with M89, M90, M91 🙁 I will have to retake those again. This massive field of view is precisely what I … Continue reading
The Running Man nebula – the full Monty
Managed to process the full width of this image which I didn’t think I’d manage to do when I started on this one earlier today.
Running Man – bigger crop
Managed to squeeze out a bigger crop which brought in the top of M42 at the bottom of the image.
The Running Man nebula in Orion – the complete dataset
I used Registar to add together all the data I had on the Running Man nebula in Orion. This amounted to well over 80 hours of total exposure time including some recent 5 x 1,000 second subs from the Hyperstar … Continue reading
IC 1831 region in Cassiopeia – Milky Way star field
North is to the right in this Sky 90/M25C image comprising 33-subs at 590 seconds per sub. I went very deep with the Sky 90 for this one under almost perfect sky conditions. To the left of the image the … Continue reading
