NGC7K and Pelican widefield in [SII], Ha and [OIII]

by Richard Crisp


I am 10 hours into this targeted 13 hour project.

Last night the clouds shut me down before starting and it looks like that may persist for a few days. So I had 2 hours of [SII] from the night before to go with the 3 hours of Ha and 5 hours of [OIII], so I decided to make the best out of what I had now.

I can always add more [SII] and other lines as weather conditions permit.

in the meantime here's 6 x 30 min Ha, 10 x 30 min [OIII] and 4 x 30min [SII] from the 150mm f/2.8 Pentax Takkumar Medium Format lens attached to an FLI DF2 and FLI CFW7 with Custom Sci 3nm narrowband emission line filters and an FLI CM10XME camera with KAF3200ME sensor.

Guiding was via my frame mounted Tak FCT76 with ST7E
