Been trying to reprocess my older bubble data these last cloudy weeks but yours is so impressive I like it
Hi Luke, what a fantastic video & certainly learned a few things from this ! I didn't know you can use a reference image to make an identical crop etc ! Your effort is so close to the Hubble image it's incredible 👏. I'll give it a go next week 👍
Thanks so much mate!! Really glad you got something out of this one 👍👍 clear skies to you my friend!
Wow, beautiful. Nice work. Great detail. Thanks for the Pixinsight tips.
Might give this a shot over the weekend. Cool idea!
Great video. I processed the Bubble doing my own thing. I have been trying to add my image to the Instagram account without success.
Great video as always, you've really opened my eyes to what Pixinsight is capable of and might have to switch from photoshop! Thanks also for putting the Askar 120 Apo on my shortlist for next scope ;)
Glad it was helpful! Clear skies my friend!
I’ll give it a try, next Saturday or so, Thanks Luke. 😀
Thanks for your support mate, hope you enjoy it!! :-D
Interesting idea, I'll have a go at this for sure. I almost always remove magenta and green from SHO images so this will be a challenge for me on several levels!
Can't wait to see how you get on with it mate!! :-D Clear skies!
Sounds fun, I'm in!
Merci Luke pour le partage des données, je vais pouvoir encore plus apprendre avec Pixinsight.
You're most welcome my friend!! Clear skies! 👍👍
I’ve never been one to use someone else’s data as the fun and excitement (for me) is taking the shots myself so I’m gonna point my scope to the bubble now whenever it’s clear 👍🏼👍🏼 be nowhere near as good as yours dude but it’s worth a shot (forgive the pun 😂) 👍🏼👍🏼 maybe a result in a year or so with this weather though 😫😂👍🏼
Hoping for some clear skies for you mate!! It's been a hell of a year with this weather, crikey haha!! Cheers dude 👍👍
Challenge accepted.
I will try to gather my own data set from the Heavenly Backyard Garden
Excellent!! I look forward to seeing that my friend 👍👍 clear skies to you!
Not much on challenges, but I have never photographed or looked at the Bubble Nebula. So, when the weather clears up, I am going to go out and do a one shot color live stack of it. Thanks for he idea!
I've never had a decent bubble nebula image but yours looks great mate
This is great Luke. Love the way you brought out the palette
Thank you! Cheers!
Suggest you do a review of the Askar 71f
$16 000 000 000 vs $10 000 I think we overpaid for Hubble
Haha, Hubble is still next level though! 👍👍
Astronauts launching to bolton seems a tad less glamorous :(
Great video Luke
Thanks as always Tony mate!! Hope you're well 👍👍
Sounds fun, I’ll give it a go.
This is ridiculous. I was quite happy with my own version, bubble is maybe 100 pixels across :(
Think I might give this a go with the new Quad + Mono cam and 3nm filters! :)
Thanks Luke for sharing your data.
My pleasure!
Insanely sharp!!!! How do you get such tiny stars?? Does seeing affect the star size a lot at 2350mm of focal length? I am using a EdgeHD 9.25 with a Zwo Asi 533mc-p
Thanks so much mate!!
Glad you liked the data on display 👍👍
The seeing certainly does affect the star size, but luckily BXT helps recover a lot of lost sharpness - still, to get the base data as good as it was for this project I went back to manually focusing with a bahtinov mask to ensure it was totally perfect every time, short exposures to ensure I could cull anything that wasn't perfect, perfect collimation and no wind - a lot of things had to be perfect basically 😅 this was done on the edge HD 11 at 2800mm F10 native
Thanks for watching!
Luke, this was a great concept/challenge. The way you zipped through the processing to get your final image was inspiring. Your processing intuitions are amazing. A few months back I did the Bubble with about 30+ hours of intergration using my Askar Fra600, and that gascious column within my bubble is washed out, almost no detail. Wondering how you got such beautiful color and detail…was it the Edge? Or just you Lukomatico magic?
Thanks so much Joe!! 👍👍 Re: that little structure, it's the brightest part of the region so can easily burn out during capture or processing, you may need to mask it and gently de-stretch if it's going too bright!
Really nice detail. What was the focal length of the scope you used for that?
2800mm mate! 👍👍
I'll try this!
I may have to try this with my teeny little 71mm refractor and 0.8x reducer 🤣At least my scope is optically faster than Hubble!
8 hours omg
I'm interested 💯!
should drop your astrobin so we can add you as a collaborator on there
I'm just Luke Newbould on there :-)
@lukomatico - Where can we post results? Its a really lovely data set!
Instagram would be best mate, tag me (lukomatico) or using the #hubblebubblechallenge tag should let me find it :-) cheers!
