Running Chicken Nebula - Narrowband and colour by Simon W Via Flickr: Following on from my earlier LRGB image here - www.flickr.com/photos/48232585@N00/32423172953/ This image combines narrowband data with LRGB. The narrowband data comprises 15 minute exposures using the ASI1600 mono-cooled astro camera, total exposures comprising: 22 of Hydrogen-Alpha (3nm astrodon filters) 18 of Sulphur II (3nm astrodons); and 14 of Oxygen III (3nm astrodons) This is a lovely nebula in our southern skies, also known as Lambda Centauri or IC2944. Taken with my Takahashi E-130D telescope and Software Bisque MyT astronomical mount, using Theskyx for equipment control and plate solving. All exposures set at gain 75 and exposed at -20c.

47 Tucanae by Simon W Via Flickr: a very quick test of 30 second exposures at 75 gain with my ZWO ASI1600 mono camera. Just 20 shots of luminance and 6 each of RG&B. Taken with my Takahashi E-130D Astrograph, from Heathcote, Victoria, Australia. Very pleased with the variety of star colours. Processed in Pixinsight, photoshop and Adobe Lightroom
