Post by SdA »

M101 Pinwheel from my backyard in Lefkada (Greece) Bortle 6. A total of 45' using the Vixen ED80Sf, 0.85 reducer, ZWO 1600 mono (139/21, -15 C), only Lum, live stack with Sharpcap, 90x30", PHD2, dithering every 90", PixInsight.
Auto reset the stack every 5', 9 separate stacks each of 5' total integration time.

Hi,

That looks very nice. I suspect that there is a lot more detail in the full resolution image compared to the reduced version you had to post here. Well done :-)


Cheers, Robin
