A Splash of Summer Color

It was a challenge to process given all the nebulosity and a very bright Antares!

M27 H-Alpha Enhanced

Posted By Thomas V Davis
That's a very nice M27 Jim! I agree that less blue and more "green" would likely bring out the OIII regions and its teal color better, but your detail and dynamic range are excellent.

Veil last night in color

Wonderful Roland! I really like the OIII wisps captured on the leading edge! I'm on your list to get a 160EDF someday -- I love my 155EDF, it will be hard for me to sell!

Zenithstar 66 For Wide Field Imaging?

Posted By Thomas V Davis
It would likely me fine for H-alpha imaging. Color imaging would likely be a problem however (not an apo, only semi-apo). The Petzval design will give a flat field intrinsically. It will not work with another reducer/flattener (such as Meade or other) as these will induce severe star distortion with the Petzval design.
