Post by: The Thing on May 30, 2014, 13:30:16
LX90 UHTC 8", Baader Alan Gee Telecompressor II, ESO 1000D (modified)l, Astronomik CLS-CCD filter. 6x60s & 15x120s processed in IRIS. Wish I'd taken out the filter, it was dark and high :(

Looks pretty good but it's got a greenish hue.  You didn't use my favourite filter by any chance did you ?

Of course, wouldn't want to disappoint with a properly colour balanced image now would I.

Lovely M13. You've done a really good job on that.

As you've already said, without a filter you would have obtained better star colours.
