This is my first time combining data with another astrophotographer, and it was a blast to work with Russell! He’s got several collaborations under his belt and we got some really excellent data on the Cone Nebula.
Watch to see and compare our two final images, using the exact same dataset but wildly different outcomes.
Final Integration Time:
Ha: 8 hrs (42 x 300s & 135 x 120s)
Oiiii: 7hrs 35mins (91 x 300s)
Sii: 4hrs 55mins (59 x 300s)
Total: 20hrs 30mins
00:00 Intro
01:48 Video Chat
03:15 Target Selection and Framing
05:06 Nick's Final Image
08:09 Russell's Final image
