I recently acquired 2 hours of Ha using an STL11002M camera at -30C. I already had some color data.

RCOS 12.5 inch.

Total of 3 hours. My dark site observatory.

Greg.

Mahvelous, Greg! If anything, the core around the pillars is just a bit too bright. It's washing out the pillars just a touch.

Nice Greg,

I like the pillars area - particularly the color tonal differencs. It is really plesent to view and shows better then a monotone red seen in many Eagle images.
