NGC281 is also known as the Pacman Nebula. This was my second attempt with this target, but my first with narrowband filters.
I tried to do a blend and get an RGB look with this. I, however, do not remember the exact pixel math formulas I used to get this result.
I’ll try again in the future to add more data to this and see if I can come up with more details on this image. Maybe even add some RGB data for star color.
Just in time for halloween. This is IC63 The Ghost of Cassiopeia. IC63 is 500 light-years away. The highly bright star Gamma Cassiopeia’s interaction with the nebula is slowly eroding the structure out.
This image was my second attempt at this target and I hope to try this again in the future to get more detail.
IC1396, also known as The Elephant’s Trunk Nebula, is a region full of installer gas and dust. Elephant’s Trunk Nebula is a star-forming region with several young stars.
This was my first attempt at a Hubble Palette false-color image. It’s not exactly a perfect representation of an SHO image, but I’m quite happy with how this came out.
I did not do a write-up on this target yet, but I will do it soon. This is my third attempt with this target, the previous attempts are documented below
This is NGC 6888 also known as the Crescent Nebula. I do not understand the name at all. Some people call i the Horseshoe Crab Nebula or Euro Sign nebula. I like the name Space Brain Nebula.
This was my first narrowband image. I processed it using an HOO Palette. I’m quite proud of the results I was able to achieve with this. I had originally planned on getting some RGB data for star colors, but time and the weather worked against me.
