NGC 456

NGC 456
I am again a live exhibit at this months Astro fest . First real true full sequence on Nina, also one night it was set off to go on its own as I was not home worked flawlessly.

Astro Fest 2021 November 13th

Unlike all other years where we where given a target to shoot we have been asked to sort out a target ourselves. NGC456 is the small part just off the Small Magellanic cloud. It looked a good target but when its processed and in shooting and live stacking it does not really show up so have canned the target. If you look at the photo below NGC456 is top right of the shot. As my next idea is the two white targets on the right hand arm of the SMC two very distinctive shapes.

Very impressive. All that initial sorting out effort is certainly showing results.

Its good to be able to choose yourself we all I am sure will choose different not a bad target but not very interesting to look at stacking as you take. The two white ones as very good as they are very distinctive shapes and white so stand out on staking. I will be using a computer screen so the best results can be seen, brightness turned down to 5%.
