  1. The Bubble Maker - WR134 in Cygnus. A Wolf-Rayet star sculpting a spherical emission bubble with its relentless stellar wind over millennia. Imaged in Hubble palette mapping (HOS). NGC 6883 and β² Cygni also in the field.

  3. Next, on the #Dwarf3 I targeted the same thing - #C63 again, but this time with an #OIII / #SII dualband filter.

    The result is quite a surprise. I was not expecting the level of intensity in the outer layers. The H-a really wipes it out normally.

  5. Last night was the last night of clear weather for a week or so for us, so, despite the full moon, we popped the Dwarves up on the roof.

    First up let's look at what I got the #DwarfII to do. I thought I'd revisit my old favourite, #C63 the #HelixNebula . What I got surprised me greatly.

    Here is the same scene - about a fortnight apart - one shot on the #Dwarf3 and the other on the DwarfII. In both cases there is about 7 hours of exposure, at gain 80, and both are using a dualband #OIII / #HII filter.

    Both were post processed in the #StellarStudio and finished in #Snapseed .

    I am utterly amazed at just how good the Dwarf2 stands up. No, it is not as good as the Dwarf3, but it is still a solid image, and one I am very pleased with.
