Description

Whizard nebula – NGC 7380 - Ha-HSO-rgb

A series of nights with excellent visibility at the end of summer, too hot and too dry, allowed 18.8 hours of HSO and RGB stars to be recorded during 3 outings.

The HSO images are composed of views at 5, 7 and 10 min. The mounts last 10 minutes with an average error of less than 2 arc-seconds, not visible in the images.

In early and mid-October no need to heat the telescopes – no dew – very rare. On the other hand, I had to increase the capacity of the batteries for cooling the cameras – as I said: too hot.

Not very happy with my OIII layer, underexposed – needs to be completed. The rest suits me very well. The most difficult region to manage is the very bright core of the nebula, which is otherwise magnificent.
