Don: Beautiful as usual. I'm very interested in starting more narrow band imaging. I have the 6 nm Ha and would like to add the OIII and SII. Do you bring...
Thanks to all who commented. Your encouragement makes those long hours of processing worthwhile. Stephen - with the U16M, I use 30 min sub-exposures unbinned....
Playing around with my 105mm F2 6x7 lens last night I like to use it to survey the sky and figure out my next image object This is a 5hour (10x30mins) HA with...

Great image Dean. i liked the details you can see with each filter. Thanks for sharing this great collection of SH2 objets, Florencio ... From: Dean Salman...
Hi, All, This is tricolor narrowband image of the interesting Melotte 15 structure inside the Heart Nebula, IC1805. 3 nm filters were used with the Hubble...
I´m so impressed Don¡¡¡ ... A true deep and sweet astrophotography.As a newcomer to narrowband approach , I really appreciate your full explanation about...
I have a (bending?) problem with the WO crayford, so the stars are lengthened. I did not waste too much time in the process. Hope you like it a bit...at least....
Simply gorgeous, Don! The plate scale and fov of your camera/scope combo is nearly unbeatable. I, like others, appreciate your tempered use of color...
Don, I so envious. You get to image cool stuff in the summer sky and I get to watch the rain fall......... sideways. Well done on your posted IC1805. Well...
Sweeeet image, Don. Incredible depth and wonderful color. Can see you guys are suffering up on that mountain top.....well, actually, I guess only the scopes...
A pretty respectable image, me think, despite flexure issues. Looking at the images of your scope, I would suspect there is flexure in your guidescope bracket...
Thanks again, Guys. Paul - Sometimes I process the narrowband into a final 16-bit tif and the RGB TIF comes in later. So, I just found it easier in my work ...
I dunno. The shapes seem pretty consistent to me. Could be differential flexure between your imaging and guiding camera, or even wind gusts. You might want to...
Well...I though this was well done, Mark. ... www.flemingastrophotography.com Direct from Boston - brilliant diamonds in pea soup Also check out the...
You're killing me, Dean. :>) I have not been able to image for weeks now and you keep posting some great images. That is a dramatic image. Bill ... From: "Dean...
LOL Thanks Neil. I had to remove the electric focuser to use the 6.3 focal reducer so im manually adjusting it for now. I may have to order a JMI for it cause...
Thank you for your help, but I am nearly sure that the flexure comes from the crayford focusser of my William Optics refractor tube. You can see the set up in...
I'm posting this here for everyone's amusement, but with the additional purpose of asking a question or two. This is an attempt at a hubble palette NGC281....
Jim, Yes I did. It made a bit of a difference, but not nearly as much as I thought it would. I was only able to tweak the OIII data so much without increasing...
Don, I have a lot of home made hardware so my tollerances and stack ups are orders of magnitude greater than factory builds. I am ginning up a kind of "swash...
Hey there, Chris. Good start on your image. Yes, I would expect that your initial data would appear very green, indeed. The Ha generally well outweighs the...
