Hi,

I had a second go at the catseye this time with a 2x barlow, its really small.  This is a quick stack of 6x8ish second frames.

Hi Chris - That looks real good - The detail in the nebula is great - You have to get colour filters to use with your SAC...

Rocket Pooch

No and you know I haven't :smile:  Wedge first the Ha, OIII then colour that's the order I'm going to stick to.  Honest.

Very nice Chris. Superb detail.
Have you had a look at it visualy? Can you see anything of if from your part of the world?

Whitters

I can recommend the Astronomik  filters when you get round to them. Go direct to Gerd Neumann.

Hi Paul,

I have had a look at it visually, without filters it just looks like a big fuzz ball, but with a 2x Barlow and the LPR and Red filter you can make out the detail.  Its really bright so you might be able to see it with the Ha.

Or and OIII Ian?
