Re: Sh2-112 reprocessed
Wow! I just have to content myself with limited exposure time and basic processing. It's amazing what digital enhancements can do.

Re: Elephant's Trunk Nebula
Pinpoint stars with 2 hours exposure. And a whole lot of nebulosity. Nice Tim.

Re: Lagoon and Trifid Nebulae
Agreed Tom, this image is surprisingly good as is.

Re: Lagoon and Trifid Nebulae
Very nice indeed Tim.
As for post processing, I went with OSC (one shot color) to avoid what I considered the tedious imaging and subsequent processing of mono. Was a bit bummed to learn that the OSC required some post processing also. But it's nowhere near as bad as mono.

Re: Trouble loading image to forum
Hi Frank, What does the image look like when stacking the 4 subs but not using darks and flats? That's a starting point. Then, what does the flat look like? Getting accurate flats can be tricky. Have you played with the flats, darkening them enough that vignetting is visible? Have you tried twilight...

Re: Trouble loading image to forum
Flats? They'll address both vignetting and dust motes. I find that even after cleaning there's one or two small dust rings in the raw image, and all optics have vignetting to some extent.

It could be too big a file?

Re: Sh2-112 emission nebula
With your advanced processing capabilities, I can only imagine just how dim this one is.

Re: NGC 6946 Spiral Galaxy aka Fireworks galaxy
Nope. Pretty sure the dew heater being turned off was the problem. Too many damned buttons....
