Flame Nebula NGC2024 with COAST


Learning from my first picture M104 with the COAST telescope in Tenerife I was able to edit my second picture, NGC2024 or Flame Nebula. It was more complicated then expected as the nebula is rather faint. Again, RGB pixels were alligned and gamma boost up. DeepSkyStacker was used to convert from Fits to Tiff and final editing using CS4.


M104 Sombrero Galaxy with COAST

The Sombrero Galaxy M104 is my first picture with the COAST telescope in Tenerife. Using the software from Telescope.org it was possible to finetune the picture. After alligning the RGB pixels the gamma range was adjusted. The Fits files was saved and DeepSkyStacker was used to convert the picture to Tiff format. Final editing with CS4.
