Description

NGC 1893

In 2021 decided to use a shorter focal length (550mm) on this target to capture the entire nebula, not just the notably named Tadpoles. This nebula has fairly strong signal in Ha, OIII and SII, so worthy of collecting data in all channels. During processing the best of the nebula features were processed after star removal using StarXTerminator in PixInsight, which has become one of my favorite tools. Then the stars were added back from the Ha master light, to present a star field I felt to be of the appropriate size and brightness; LRGB Combination was used to add this channel on top on the finished starless frame. 

Data collected over the evenings of November 4, 5 , 8 , 9, 17, 19 and 23, 2021.
