NGC 281 and M33

[Daniel]

Hi All, I wasn't sure wether to post these or not since they didn't come out as good as I'd hoped. Anyway, I thought, "what the hell" and im posting them anyway. One thing im quite happy with I guess is I finally have some star colour!

I did these as a low ISO experiment seeing if lower ISO and longer subs gave me better results than lots of higher ISO shorter length subs. tonight im trying the latter.


Anyway, details are as follows :-

M33 = 19x180s ISO 160

NGC 281 = 37x180s ISO 160

The detail in those images is fantastic.

M33 is very good - lovely colours & details.John

[Daniel]

Thanks guy's, actually I've realised one thing about the images, the colour is a LOT easyer to handle using the lower ISO, so maybe I won't give up on this just yet!

Daniel its a shame you couldn't get to the DSC this weekend we had some great skies .... Would be really interesting to see what you can do with that Hyperstar from a dark location - John

Another excellent set of images.  Though I think the colour balance in the first is a bit too red.

[Daniel]

Hi Robert, I was thinking that too, going to re-process on the way home tonight!

Very good Daniel.

You're getting some excellent results with that hyperstar - really sharp stars right to the edges.  You're certainly on a roll now ...
