#IC4628

2024-06-29

What a difference a year makes.

June last year, I took a shot of the Prawn Nebula - IC4628 with what was then my brand new DwarfII telescope. 39 x 15s. A mere 10 minutes of data.

Last night I took another shot of the same DSO. I know quite a bit more, and the software on the Dwarf has had two major revisions. I shot 400 frames, of which 16 were dropped, so almost exactly ten times the data. The combination of additional data and the software updates make for a dramatic comparison.

Post processing in Snapseed in both cases.
