Description

A re-processed M27 color picture, where the raw data/exposures are from 2012 and 2013.

Total exposure time more than 15 hours. Filters used for the Atik camera: LRGB, Ha, OIII and SII.

The combination between scopes and cameras used for taking the sub-exposures were:

WO FLT-110 and Atik460ex mono, WO FLT-110 and Canon20Da, WO FLT-110 and Canon60Da and

LX200ACF 16" and Atik460ex mono.

I have tried to show the stars in RGB colors, the internal structure of M27 as a mix of RGB colors and using the hubble palette colors. The outer shell structure of M27 shown as/in SII, Ha, OIII colors.

My astro web pages are: www.astro-hp.dk and www.astro-billeder.dk

My home build observatory is placed in my front yard/in the "red light" polution zone, have a look here,

Red Zone

Kind regards Niels
