Astrophotography / Work in progress - Sharpless 224 in Auriga
« Last post by Roberto on Today at 10:57:01 »I know I won't finish this one this week so putting it out there before we meet again. Imaging Sh2-224 in Auriga in Hydrogen Alpha and Oxygen III and RGB. Ha is pretty easy; OIII less so. Image below does not have any OIII yet...

thats a nuiscance that is is such a long procedure. do you know the name of it or why it happens?
Dupuytren's disease may or may not lead to a finger contracture. The treatment depends on a number of factors. The least invasive treatment is a simple injection into the lumps/cords to dissolve them. Last time I had them surgically removed. This time I needed the full depth skin grafts.

Astrophotography / NGC6820 from 2018
« Last post by Carole on Yesterday at 23:57:14 »Was never quite happy with the final result of this image as I could never get the blue from the Oiii to show through. Recently I learned a new technique on "Bringing out the faint stuff" (chez Olly Penrice), so decided to have "go" at it.
It's produced a rather unusual result but I quite like it.
