Description

Was hoping to get a good color image of this target but have no clear nights in weeks and now I have switched scopes. So this is it. I am not happy with how this turned out. In spite of 250 subs, the calibration resulted with weird "holes" after stretching. I am not sure if it is due to calibration problem or 12 bit dynamic range of the camera. Anyway, here it is.

I did get about 60 subs/channel for R/G/B but the flats didnt match and had blotches of green that shows up if I stretch hard. So dumped it.

This was shot with unity gain.
