Horsehead and Flame Nebula - IC434 and NGC2024
Technical Informations:
Telescope: AIRY APO 130T f/6.6
Mount: NEQ6-Pro
Camera : QHY168C -- GAIN:10 ; OFFSET:32 -- -20°C
Filter: Optolong 36mm L-Pro Filter, Optolong 36mm H-a
Frames: RGGB 165 x 240s with L-Pro - 5 x 900s with H-a
Total Integration: 12,25 Hours
Software: SGP – PHD2 – PixInsight – CS6
Location: Noventa di Piave ( Venice) 4 meter above sea level – ITALY
Environment Temperature: About -3°C ( 26,6 F )
Relative Humidity: 90%
Date: 17.12.17 - 18.12.17 - 21.12.17 - 22.12.17
NOTE: This image was taken under a very polluted sky ( yellow-red zone ) and with high humidity. I am very impressed about how much signal I acquired and I have to say that the L-Pro filter worked very well against the light pollution! I had to integrate a lot because of the sky which was not so good.
Very satisfied of this result!
I always want to thank Terry Hancock, who is my teacher, for explaining me how to reach a good result even if I have acquired from a polluted sky and not only - I could not have reached all my latest results without his help! Thank you, Terry!
