Astronomy
Imaging Database
Here is a database of objects on the imaging "wish list".
Once I get some satisfactory results I will add the work flow in BOLD.
Remember, this is only a guide and is always dependant on - type of scope, type of imaging device, viewing conditions and frame calibrations.
The Canon 450D I use is a modified version (IR blocking filter removed) it also has an Astronomik Clip filter fitted.
Please note: uploaded pictures at the moment are either a single or just a few frame captures (mostly 180seconds or 240seconds).
