Description

This is a four frame mosaic of the Vela SNR shot with the Askar 200 mm and ASI 2600 MC Pro. It captures a number of the GUM nebulae as well. I was really pleased with how this came out. Each frame is 90 mins through an LExt filter combined with 20 mins through an LPro filter for star colors. I used PI to stitch the mosaic together including the photometric mosaic tool - the latter worked really well. Regarding the stars I have been very impressed with how SPCC generates good star colors from the LExt data but I think I prefer the stars colors from the LPro, I could use either in the final image I'm sure!

I didn't apply SCNR to this image mainly because my gut told be there was quite a lot of green in the SNR so I left it as is.

Thanks for looking

John
