Had another go at the Trifid the other night. It was nice and high in the sky.

13 x 45 seconds, two at 60 seconds. Takahashi FS152, Takahashi F6 focal reducer, MI 250 mount unguided, Nikon D70 modified, Baader UV/IR block filter, ISO 1600, measured white balance settings off a daylight shot.

Images Plus Nikon, Capture Editor.

Seems there is a lot more nebula that is blue than I have normally seen in shots.

Greg.

WOW!
Talk about COLORFUL!

I think you got a bit too much blue on this one, but nice shot nonetheless!
Thanks Greg! wink
