NGC7023

NGC7023 - Iris Nebula. Last nights run. RGB only, 10x 300sec each filter. I am finding that this camera works better with RGB only, without spending the time on the Luminance. Anyway, there does appear to be a red and green arc on the right side. Either a reflection, or some other flats problem. Oh to actually get a decent data set!!

UPDATE - I shot another set of lights last night and the red/green arc was still there. So this afternoon I shot a new set of Flats with the scope pointing vertically and the flat panel sat directly on top. VOILA!!! As you can see from this quick process the image is a big improvement. Total exposure time now 100 minutes for each filter, i.e. 5 hours total.
