Description

Nov 7, 2021 - Crab Nebula (M1)

I think this is my fastest ever DSO process, finished capturing it 5 hours ago and here is the final result. Captured 28 subs 10min each using the L-Ext filter which I have had for a while but I never really used it before and to be honest I am very impressed.

My processing technique now is really simple as I don't want to spend a lot of time on it.
1) Calibrate, Stack, Vignetting and Background remote using AstroPixelProcessor.
2) PI to crop and stretch.
3) Topaz DeNoise.
4) Luminar 4 to enhance the image.
5) Photoshop to make it look a bit better and create a signed JPG version of it.

Equipment used
Celestron 9.25" with 0.7x reducer
ZWO ASI533MC Camera
L-Ext filter
iOptron CEM60 mount
