Pelican nebula from Orange mottingham

[Rocket Pooch]

Hi,

The sky was bright orange last night so I did a little Ha, S2 O3 imaging (8, 6, 4 x 10 subs) on a nice litte part of the Pelican nebula.  To do this image justice I would need to be somewhere dark, or have about 3 nights, but its ok, I did realise yesterday that my mirror lock has been off making my previous images a bit odd anyway here you go, processing needed, but I have to goto work today.


Atik 314, all 10 minute subs, no flats etc, Meade ACF 8" @F6.7 or 1.34 meters FL.

Looks very good mate - that's part of the neck region... I did a slightly larger FOV in June (which I must try & reprocess...)

Fantastic image Chris, love the deatil your getting at that focal length, and with last nights skies too, which were pretty terrible!

Very good image Chris - it's a very interesting part of the nebula.  You've got nicely round stars -  so your guiding at that long focal length is pretty good.

It would be very interesting to do the same thing from a dark site.
