how do set the correct colour in your image?Posted By Thomas V Davis |
The most accurate way is G2V star calibration. Here is an excellent tutorial by Don Goldman:

Big M31Posted By Thomas V Davis |
Excellent!! Wonderful detail!
Here is mine from last year taken with an AP 155EDF. I too am pleased with the level of dust lane detail at the core and in M110 that this scope can provide.

I look forward to your LRGB version.

What's going on herePosted By Thomas V Davis |
What were your processing steps? Darks-Flat reduction? Anything else?

Horsehead in HalphaPosted By Thomas V Davis |
Hi Greg,
Nice beginning.
It seems quite noisy. How much time? Did you dither between exposures? If you could get 3-4 hours total with 20-30 minutes exposures - dithered between would would have a very nice, deep, smooth image. I would concentrate more time to the H-alpha before attempting the color. If you use this currently with color it will likely be very noisy.
Hope your having a nice summer. I'm freezing up here and the weather has been terrible.
Best,
Tom
