This was the first shot I attempted at Astrophotography. Was very surprised that my first go would turn out like this. I thought that I would ruin it. But I managed to actually get one which pleased me much!
The light that can be seen is being emitted from Christchurch City.
This is just a curiosity looking of the same shot of NGC1499-California but I've managed to make a raw (not so perfect but just for fun) exclusion of the stars. I've also increased a little bit the overall microcontrasts to better show the gas structures. It seems to me to very look like a cosmic carpet made of clouds...
Thanks
Another image from the WSP2012.
This is an LLRGB image of 110:40:40:40 min exposure.
The image has been taken during two days and I had to remove the camera from the scope for collimation so the two sessions does not overlap exactly. I have made a crop, but still at full res of about 0.64arcsec/pix. The imaging scope is an Officina Stellare UCRC320 at f5.4 The camera used is a QSI 683WSG with an Starlight Xpress Lodestar camera for guiding on a Paramount MX Mount.
The very down right corner of the image has poor NSR due to not overlapping frames. Filters used are the Astrodon gen II.
Thanks for watching.
