ASTRO: Redone Pelican
Last January I finally got around to processing a shot of the Pelican
Nebula's neck region. When I did it I was surprised to find virtually no blue or green, just red. What with all my bad flats this summer from that loose screw I found most waiting processing not worth processing so went back to look at old stuff to see if I could improve it. Turns out somehow I'd only pasted in the red frame after enhancement and the green and blue ones before. There was virtually no signal from those colors at all. I've redone it correctly. This also allowed me to go a bit deeper than before. There is a B5 star out of frame to the left, it cast a red arc through the original image. I really should have caught on when I saw that but didn't. Now the arc is much brighter and blue as it should be. The JPEG size also increased what with data in the other two color channels. 14" LX200R @ f/10, L=6x5' binned 2x2, R=2x5'(clouds ruined one) GB=3x5' RGB frames binned 3x3, STL-11000XM, Paramount ME Rick -- Correct domain name is arvig and it is net not com. Prefix is correct. Third character is a zero rather than a capital "Oh". |

Looks good to me Rick. Everything is very sharp, must have been a night of
good seeing. Stefan "Rick Johnson" schrieb im Newsbeitrag ... Last January I finally got around to processing a shot of the Pelican Nebula's neck region.
