    Thanks Mike, it's pretty amazing really what you can get out of this little scope; providing you get enough subs that is.

    A Cool Calculation From Charles Bracken

    Great info Mike, I will certainly try adding the formula into my current imaging spreadsheet. I checked my bookshelf, I don't have the Sky Atlas but do have Charles Bracken's book 'The Deep Sky Imaging Primer'; it contains a wealth of information on image acquisition, processing, and image...

    The Dolphin Head Nebula (Sh2-308) in NB with RGB Stars

    I agree Mike. I will continue to use Blink for the initial visual check, and use the Frame Selection tool for a more 'scientific' culling.

    M31 with the Seestar S50

    Hi there, firstly I would say, try not to make the mosaic frame any larger than you need to, so that you are not spending imaging time on areas of sky you might well crop out anyway. Also, I do tend to stick to 10s exposures on mosaics, as that way you get the full field of view covered in less...

    NGC2244 The Rosette Nebula Ablaze! (3 years in the Making)

    That's a great rendition, all that data and perseverance certainly paid off! You have managed to get a great feeling of depth and love the colours. I've always liked this target both with and without stars. Great job.
