Description

Since I needed to further verify the newly obtained 4nm OIII from Baader I chose another well known target, the Wizard Nebula. I believe I tried this object every year, maybe because I am a big fan of it 😊. Well, as the previous filter, the new one produced the same bad artifacts, hence even if it is mentioned in the obtained data, there is not a single trace of them in the final images. I am still in contact with Baader, so far with no resolution, pretty sad.
This image also contains some additions from Topaz, if one adds it gently it can really improve the overall image.

Description: The 6200 always leaves the option open to zoom in, without losing a lot. I am such a fan of this camera 😊, even if it fills up my (6-8) TB hard drives within a couple of months 😊.

Description: I hope it is ok to "advertise" a YouTube video, but this one caught instantly my eyes. Adam Block really tackles some things that are amazing. Here is my version of those over-reduced pixels when subtracting the masterdark. For explanation please watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M4Bie7NOXbg
