Hi, I have been using Ron's gradient removal plugin and find it very friendly to use in images where you have background level pixels in most of the border...
Thanks Michael I enjoyed perusing your website. I had not seen your work before. Very nice! Your 4565 is one of the best I have seen. Gotta love the FOV you...
Wow Ron Sure is a lot going on in that little area of the Pelican. 20" sure resolves some detail nicely. My FS 60 told me that it wants to be an RC20 when it...
Mike - lovely images. As an LX200 owner (but not yet a CCD owner), I've been wondering about how good it can get with this mount having read so many bad...
Charlie, very nice Pelican. So this is an Ha+Lum exposure? Have you tried to use a -UV filter with the L exposures on the FS60C? Does it help with star sizes? ...
Hello everyone, In the "files" section of this site is an image of the Pelican Nebula labled "Davis Pelican Nebula". It was taken with a Tele Vue 101 and...
Hi folks I'm running a fresh T-Point mapping and am using my TV101 and SKY6 Did this before with no problems but this time am having difficulty. I turned off...
Another user reported similar issues with TheSky6. He then did a mapping run with TheSky5 and got much better results - jumping from 40% mapped to 80% mapped....
The approach I take personally is trial and error - apply a gradient removal and evaluate it. Then either use the undo last button, or do a second round of...
Hi Ron et al. I will try loading Sky5 and doing a run with that. I'll let you know how it works out. Thanks JImmy ... mapping run ... to 80% ... would be ... ...
I don't think you can do much to process those out. They are reflection and scattering artifacts of the surface structure of the chip. The chip surface is not...
Thank you Ron. I appreciate the input. Tom Davis ... reflection and ... chip surface ... creates ... artifact. ... swamps whatever ... also are ... selections...
Insanely deep or deeply insane? You decide <G> This is the same H-alpha image I posted about a week ago, just stretched beyond all limits of sensibility. I...
That's very cool, Paul. This processing, and the inverse, really show off the very slightest bits of nebulosity. I'm especially taken with the faint background...
Great shot, Charlie! Only comment is that the "bird" seems to be taking a nap <vbg>. Have you considered rotating the image? Randy ... the ... haze....
Tom, I agree with Ron, and personally don't find the artifacts to be of a nature that's distracting from the total image...your image presents itself quite...
Thanks, Steve! I agree about the inverted video for H-a: makes a huge difference in seeing faint details. Regards, -Paul ... wonderful, ... details ... ...
Ron, Thank you for your thoughtful reply. I am new to the group and did not expect to hear from you. Your book is what changed my curiosity in CCD work into...
Michael, It is so helpful to hear from someone who has experience with a motorized dob. I understand that I can use a field de-rotator, but I worry that would...
Thanks Paul I shot some Lum because I was planning on adding RGB, and this usually helps with the blend. I have not found a good way to get color with just Ha....
