Integration time (running total):
    * OSC 139 X 120s (278m)
    * Total: 4h38m

In spite of the pretty poor weather, galaxy season is still underway. I’m really happy with the detail in M108 and the central star in M97. The Antlia RGB filter is proving challenging at the processing stage as some very unusual reflections are apparent. This might also be light leaks in the flats (more likely, in fact). To be investigated.

    Integration time:
    * 174 x 60s (2h54m)
    * Total: 2h45m

Notes

19th November 2022 The current long run of cloudy skies has freed up a bit of time to catch with some processing and experimentation. The latest image is properly calibrated and processed with Bill Blanshan’s Pixinsight script for Hubble pallet images using OSC data.

    Integration time:
    * 111 x 120s (3h42m)
    * Total: 3h22m

Notes

13th August 2022 A small number of frames gathered before clouds rolled in once more.

    Integration time:
    * 165 x 120s (5h30m)

10th August 2022 Five and a half hours of data gathered last night. Compared to previous targets the nebulosity of NGC7822 is quite faint.

    Integration time:
    * 319 x 120s 
    * Total (10h38m)

Notes

8th August 2022
Another five hours' + data gathered on a new target in Cygnus.

10th July 2022 In the end it took five hours to stack the subs! The end result was good though.

First light with a new widefield refractor and one-shot colour camera.
