Description

The ring nebula taken on a windy but clear night. Trying to work out how to deal with the noise from the warmer temperatures. I think I'll have to back the exposures down to 2 mins or less. I think its about time to find my way into a cooled dedicated camera of some sort.

Description: Re shot this target a few nights ago when the weather was perfect. The stars are rounder and I think I was able to correct the color a little better.

Description: First of me re shoot revision. It is weird that on some screens there is a lot of noise in the space portion of the photo but not in others. It looks great on the screens that don't show the gradient, made another revision that looks good on those screens but less good on most others.

Description: Another re shoot because I haven't been satisfied with the results. This time shot in broadband true color and about 200 13 seconds exposure with a gain of 475.
