NGC4565 with QSI583 cameraPosted By Jared Willson |
I love the shot, Roland. I was inspired to try it myself.
NGC4565 captured April 21, 2010 from Oakland, CA
NELM 2.9 (street lights and first quarter moon); Seeing 6/10 (Pickering)
Astro-Physics EDFS 130 @ f/6; Astro-Physics Mach1 GTO; FLI ML-8300 camera
120 minutes luminosity;Dark and flat frame subtraction
It's not as nice as Gilles' image, but I was pleased I came as close as I did. I get something like 1.3" per pixel with my combination. Can't wait to see what is possible on a good night from dark skies!
