In case, like me, you are getting tired of seeing the overall image shrink in scale as I keep adding panels to this project, I have created a zoomable version that I will keep updated so you can zoom all the way to 1:1 if you want to see all the details in the North American and Pelican Nebulas that I am imaging. It is located here: http://mosaicproject.eprisephoto.com/
- Fireworks In Helix Nebula
Image taken by Subaru Telescope shows comet -shaped knots lighting up the Helix nebula. A nebula is cloud of gas and dust in space. Some nebulas are regions where new stars are being formed, while others are the remains of dead or dying stars. Nebulas...
- Two Years And A Pelican
Two years ago I could not even tell you what someone meant if they said "narrowband image" let alone expect that I would, in a relatively short amount of time, learn enough about astrophotography that I would be undergoing a project that would take all...
- Summer Project
Have you ever wanted to image for 8.5 days? I don't mean take a vacation and take a photo sometime throughout each day - I mean 8.5 days, 200+ hours, of cumulative exposure time for one photo. This is what I am currently in the midst of. I don't...
- Finalizing Action List
The 25 free pre-orders went fairly quickly, which is exciting and I hope that everyone who gets them will find them a valuable set for processing and will spread the word about them. Likewise, I would appreciate any feedback about the actions or if you...
- Making A Mosaic
If you want to image a larger object with a small chip CCD it inevitably leaves to one thing: Mosaics. My first attempt turned out fairly well (I made a 6 panel mosaic of the Rosette Nebula), but did take a good bit of figuring out, aligning, and minute...
