NGC281

This is another object that I think has some interesting structure and nebulosity.

AP155/7, ST-10, 6nm h-a filter from twelve, ten minute frames.

Wow, Carl, you're a Ha-goo-roo. There sure is a wide dynamic range of brightness in this image; you did a great job of balancing it all.

Cal, I am just amazed at the results you are getting. You really have things dialed in for top quality results.

I would really like to try some Ha, but my built-in guide chip is just blind when my 4.5nm bandwidth filter is in place. I guess I will be forced to bite the bullet and get a guide scope and small guider setup before I can really get any good data. I will probably waste my money on a wider bandwidth filter first, and then sell it and pony up for the real setup! That is how I usually do things.

hi,

Otherwise know as the Packman Nebula. You did a great job getting and processing the
images.

"This is another object that I think has some interesting structure and nebulosity."

I agree wholeheartedly.

clear skies,

Thanks for the comments everyone. They are nice to hear.

Beautiful Ha shot Cal!
I have to get me one of those filters!
