Sigh, Thor's Helmet with L-eXtreme
« on: March 06, 2022, 11:41:00 AM »
Well, in spite of feeling very guilty about being able to spend time on a mere hobby with Ukraine under a terrible siege, I managed to book some star time this week. 80 minutes of total exposure in 60 second subs along with 7 dark frames. Atik Horizon OSC with Optolong L-eXtreme duel-band filter riding on a iOptron CEM40EC. Unguided with manual dithering. Processed in DSS and Nebulosity with Topaz Denoise to finish off.

An object that I have been thinking of photographing for a long time and I can never finish. Your image is very beautiful!
