Witches broom Blacklands 180812

This was from Blacklands, I will add to it, but will not get the detail. I wanted to get 3hrs worth, but dew hampered progress. There is a aircraft trail which is still there, I think there are not enough subs for it to be sorted out   
QSI, ED80,0.85 fr, 7nm ha. 4x1200

That's a real beauty Fay.
Glad you got something after all your problems.

Very nice.  That 7nm filter has certainly cut through last night's milkiness - it's given a very nice result.

Well done!

[JohnP]

looks excellent Fay for such short exposure... well done,  John

[Fay]

Thanks, it would have been quite detailed if subs had run, their course

[JohnP]

Yes shame you had so many probs. I actually have my camera pointed at the exact same area of sky at this moment - my FOV is only about 1/3 what you got though.. Did you do anything special in processing to keep the main star so small - I thought it would have been well bloated with 1200 sec subs...

[Fay]

only did a rough process John, as knew i will either add to it or delete

[RobertM]

Hi Fay,

That's got good resolution and plenty of detail but it's a real shame those other subs weren't usable as another 4x20 mins would have given you so much more to play with.  20 min subs are a bit like putting all your eggs in one basket but that's pat of the tradeoff.

Have you plans to add more subs ?

Robert

[Fay]

I am outside tonight doing 900sec subs of veil

added 7x900 SW120 to 3x1200 ED80.
hope this looks ok as have twoprocessed versions, they always look different on each computer

[JohnP]

Looking a lot smoother - very nice Fay - Well done.  John

[Fay]
