Sharpless 236

My SH2-206 with 29 hours narrowband data, it has been tough to process and this is my first stab at it. Not many images of this interesting nebula. Taken with my Atik 383L+ and 190MN scope from my backyard in the UK. #Astrodon #Astronomy #Astrophotography #Sharpless #Space #Nebula

Colourful nebula with a blue core and a dusty red outer shell, surrounded by stars

Here is my SH2-170 Little Rosette image, a total of 26 hours exposure in narrowband across [SII], H-alpha and [OIII]. It has been a tough target to image and has taken many sessions across a month of imaging due to poor weather.

Rosette shaped nebula in a colourful star field showing the narrowband emmisons of Sulphur ,Hydrogen Alpha and Oxygen in the nebulas dust

Here is my initial process of my SH2-124 data. 8 hours H-alpha, 7.5 hours [SII] and 10 hours [OII] mapped in the standard SHO palette. The star colours might be a bit off, I haven't checked them yet, but I'm quite pleased as how this came out considering how faint the [SII]/[OIII] channels were. Imaged with MN190 scope and Atik 383L+ mono cam from Lancashire UK #astrodon #astrophotography #nebula #sharpless #space #astronomy #astro #narrowband #photography

SH2-124 Nebula imaged in narrowband 25 hours total integration time, processed as SHO palette

The data acquisition for my current target SH2-124 is now complete but it has been a slog involving lots of nights of short imaging sessions and also under lots of Moon light in some cases. I only captured 1 subframe on a couple of nights but that’s the nature of the game I guess. Here is just the H-alpha data, 6 hours exposure, the [OIII] and [SII] will need careful processing as they are super faint 😬 scope 190MN and Atik 383L+ #astrophotography #space #Nebula #astro #astronomy #sharpless
