Hi,

This is my first experiment with 6 filters. HST + RGB stars.

I took the image with the following equipment:

Mount: Atlas
OTA: Epsilon 160
Camera: Atik 460EX
Processing SW: Pixinsight

Ha: 46x20m 1x1
OIII: 12x20m 2x2
SII: 12x20m 2x2
RGB: 60x30s each channel

I am very happy with the Epsilon 160 it is very sharp and it does't have 'any' spherical aberration, the stars are very tight. The Atlas and EQMOD is perfect for this OTA night after night it performed flawlessly.

Image along with Ha channel can be found here:

Thanks for looking!

Cheers,

Jose

Thanks Lex!

I posted the image in the PI forum and it was the first time I received a reply, usually that forum is very quiet with my images...

Thanks for your encouraging comments!

Cheers,

Jose
