Subject: IC 1848 nebula
Author: Jérôme Gaillard
Scope: IC 1848 nebula
Instruments: Canon 350D without original filter on the sensor (but with a Baader filter for astronomy)
Exposure time: 18 frames of 10 minutes
Place & Seeing: Fontarèches in the south of France (Gard)
Date:
Remarks: This is the result of 18 frames of 10 minutes for each one on IC 1848
nebula.
The guiding was realised with a philips Toucam pro 2 webcam placed at the focus of a Takahashi FS 128 refractor.
The two refractors were in parallel on a Takahashi EM 200 mount with FS2.
Because of the presence of a moon, a Lumicon H alpha filter (and also a VR1 2'' WO filter) have been put in front of the imager device.
The Dslr was a Canon 350D without original filter on the sensor (but with a
Baader filter for astronomy).
The frames have been taken at home in Fontarèches in the south of France
(Gard).
We can see that with such a focal lenght (480 mm), It's possible to see the
whole nebula.
Processing was done with Iris and Photoshop CS2
