Corona Australis Nebula NGC 6729- Better looked full screen

Corona Australis Nebula  NGC 6729- Better looked full screen
One of the shots better in narrow band filters, this will get revisited. I chose this target as it had a very bright double star and it would show just how well collimation Really is. Most of what you are looking at is Dust and no stars I ran into the problem of not enough stars to properly plate solve.

DO look at this on black you will get a better idea.

Thank you Diana its comments like this that make it worthwhile when you feel its always going against you. This telescope is not as easy as the last a lot more finicky. The results are getting better but not quite as I would like them under control so I can change to B/W and filters. we have had a first 30+ day this far out going to be a very bad summer.

Thank you I hope to get better Results of this type once i change over to narrow band EG B/W camera and filters . Then it will get even more interesting. I my wheel I have RGB which is normal colour photography and in narrow band Ha (Hydrogen) S (sulphur) OIII ( Oxygen). In narrow band how you combine what your colour looks like. I am trying to get comfortable with the Telescope before I throw any more curve balls into the mix . Glad you Like the shot so much more out there.

A great astro image, Steve. The dust clouds certainly show well. Yes, we've just had about six days in a row over 30 - thankfully now past. Summer does indeed look challenging!

Thank you it was killed by clouds much like tonight. Not looking forward to summer like you we expect more over 30 next week this far out almost unheard of. Its the fire season that is the real worry in this country. you stay safe and cool.
