Hi All,
Too windy last night for my NexStar 11, and inspired by Johannes great image I gave IC1318 a go last night with my Borg 76ED. I don't own an H-alpha filter just yet but by the looks of this image, it's going to be my next purchase! Like Johannes I didn't have time for the color portion but I did mix 2 shots through the red filter with the luminance.
Nevertheless, I'm pretty happy with this being my second image.
Borg 76ED piggyback on NS11 - ST2000XM - IDAS LPR filter - Images Plus - PhotoShop CS - Neat Image - Lum: 5@900 sec. - Red: 2@1200 sec. - Total exposure: 1.9 hours - image reduced 50%
Best,
