Pacman Bicolor

#1

Post by Micke187 »


So in the last week i got around to shoot some o3 for my pacman i posted earlier.
But with the weather i didnt get alot of useful data for it but enough to get some colors for it. I also thought to get some s2 but it was so faint i think it would be difficult to get something useful out of it.
So hope you like it!

exposure:
HA 80x300 sec
O3 30x300 sec
cooling -15
TS-optics 115mm triplet+1.0x flattener
ASI 1600mm pro

Thanks! Oh you got alot more signal then i did. But i only shoot 300seconds tho so thats may be the problem. On a single sub you could just barely see anything so thats why i skipped s2. But maybe i will try and gather s2 this week and hope i can get anything useful.
