ngc1333 first night


ngc1333 first night

Finally had a clear night and it was a Friday. Imaging challenge of the month, so figured I'd give it a shot. Three hours and 20 minutes total exposure:
80x60" L
20x120" each R, G and B
I cropped it to exactly half size - mostly to hide the issues with the calibration (flats didn't work so well) and awful stars (still haven't gotten tilt/spacing right). Definitely needs a whole lot more integration time to bring out the dark nebulosity and get more detail in the center. Pretty pleased with just a single night's data - especially since this is the first image I've done since last spring.
