New Image: NGC6888 Crescent nebula high resolution

#1

Post by avdhoeven »

This image is a combination from a dataset that I obtained from Insight Observatory taken with an AG10 CDK f/6.7 telescope in combination with my own dataset that I obtained with my TMB92ss in the past few years. The first dataset mainly contributed to the resolution while the second dataset helped with reducing noise and making the colors as I like (I used my own color layers in combination with true color stars from the CDK dataset).

For this image I made a bicolor using the Ha and OIII data and generating a green channel from the blue and red channels. After that I also made an RGB image using the color layers and using masks I introduced back the star colors.

Altogether this resulted in an image with a resolution of 0.48"/pix giving a beautiful detail of this nebula.

I'm quite happy with this result to be honest :)

In total 116 hours of data is incorporated in this image. Exposure details are below the image.

Telescope: AG10 CDK f/6.7 and TMB92ss
Camera: ASI6200mm pro and QSI583ws
