This was my first real attempt at imaging the galaxy M81 (Bode's Galaxy).
It is the
result of 65 stacked images of 30 seconds each at ISO 1600 + 11 images
of 2 minutes each at ISO 800. Stacking was done
with DeepSkyStacker (free!) The grainy appearance is due to the fact
that I clearly need more photons and less chip noise. Still a work in
progress... - ISO 800, 1600 - F10 - 30 second exposures (x 65) + 2 minute exposures (x 11); 54 minutes total - Direct images through the 8-inch LX200GPS - Unguided - Location: TDS + Home 01.16.2009 |
