A Piece of the Jellyfish

Wonderful shot Dan, excellent detail on the nebulosity!
Question, what brand filter are you using? I was looking around for some of these Ha filters, but all I've seen are 10nm and higher, no 6nm as you mention...


Thanks for sharing, and keep it up! wink

Also called "The Seagull Nebula", it is a wonderful object to image, specially in Ha.

Wonderful cluster shot Greg!
Sometimes these Southern shots make me wish I was down in my birthplace (Peru) shooting all these great objects! (maybe one day I'll go back and do it)


Thank you for sharing with us!

Use of Televue 60mm APO as an astrograph

Posted By Ivan Gastaldo

It's a nice shot nonetheless Ivan...
I can definitely see that a field flattener would be necessary for this scope, in order to take advantage of the full fov (imaging-wise)... but the contrast & detail are great already! (I wonder if anybody out there would have one compatible with your setup already...)


Thanks for sharing! wink
