Horse Head Nebula Rotated B33

While the Old year Ended and the New Started my final shot of the year edited 5am this morning. This is the Horse head nebula in the view we are more use to seeing but not in the colour's we would expect. This is the Hubble pallet with RGB stars.



What is different about this to the last shot of the Horse head in November was being able to Rotate the focuser and also have a counter weight to offset the filter wheel. Where the filter wheel ends up the weight is opposite.




This was rotated 40 degrees straight up because of the scale I put on to suit the body of the focuser. The scale is long lines 10 and the small 5 degrees of rotation.



The trial will continue and get slowly better refined so rotation will become the normal to suit the image much the same way on a DSLR we compose the shot we want. This was much the same way I used the ED80 and my Nikon lens all views rotated to suit the target.

Happy new Year to all the readers here and Look forward to 2025 and our shots, clear skies and cool nights
