A try on dark Nebulaes

[smallmadtv]

Hi,

I point the elephant trunk nebula with my Skywatcher ED80, autoguided on a Neq6Pro. Trying to get these Barnard object... Dark nebula amongs the stars... Just in case I couldn't get them, I have the trunk in the field...

This image is a stack of 90 lights of 3min at 800Iso (canon 350D ir-uv filter removed) /// 270min or 4h30 + dark, flat and bias...

It looks pretty darn good to me ! Needs a little added to the mid-tones with color balance but other than that looks good !

I love the processing of the stars. The whole image is great, but the stars caught my eye.
