Butterfly nebula as an animated 3D, new version
In this blog, there is lots of experimental material. To see my actual astroimages, please, see my Portfolio:http://astroanarchy.zenfolio.com/
Updated, 30.03.2010
Animations are made by creating artificial parallax to an image. Then two images are animated together by using conversion web service, Start3D. There can be some artifacts in images, due the experimental nature of this work! The volumetric models are based on some known facts and an artistic impression.
Please, let the images load for few seconds to see them animated!
NOTE! This is a personal vision about forms and shapes, based on some known facts and artistic impression.

Stereo news
http://www.londonstereo.com/ In this site, there is a link to a work of T.R. Williams (1824-1871)
Brian May , he is a PhD of Astrophysics, guitarist, songwriter and founding member of Queen. Beside that, he is a stereo image enthusiast!
"Village of Lost and Found" is a 3D-stereo book about the work of T.R. Williams made by Brian May and photographic historian Elena Vidal. There is a clever stereo viewing device with the book, the OWL stereoscope, it's designed and produced by Brian May!
I see "Village of Lost and Found" as a most important cultural work. I will have my own copy very soon and I'll write a small book review after that.

Abell 21, Sh2-274, the "Medusa Nebula", Start of the new project.
Ones again, this target is very low for me, at highest elevation in South, it was about 35 degrees and after a three hours, the altitude was only a 25 degrees.
I managed to get only one 20min frame of O-III, binned 3x3, but there was some signal, so I was able to make the "preview" image as a color one. (Red=H-a, Green=O-III and Blue=80%O-III + 20%H-a)
I'll continue with this target as soon as the weather cooperates againg.
Processing work flow:
Image acquisition, MaxiDL v5.07.
Stacked and calibrated in CCDStack.
Levels, curves and color combine in PS CS3.

Galaxy in "natural" color. Narrowband channels are mixed to match visible spectrum. Red=80% H-alpha+20% S-II, Green=O-III and Blue=80% O-III+20% H-alpha to compensate otherwise missing H-beta.
Galaxy in HST-palette, Red=S-II, Green=H-a and Blue=O-III
It's a Galaxy season but since my light pollution is so bad, I'm not able to do good broad band imaging, needed for targets like Glaxies.
I made this experiment to see, if it's possible to shoot Glaxy with NB-filters, there is some Broad band luminance used, it's shot with a Hutech light pollution filter.
Kind of interesting to see, how emission areas pop up visually, there was strongish signal in H-a and S-II,
O-III was weaker but there was couple of srong O-III regions, they are seen as Blue in a HST-palette image. There was some very weak O-III signal in a largish area around the Galaxy core, it can barely seen as a Bluish hue in the both images.
Processing work flow:
Image acquisition, MaxiDL v5.07.
Stacked and calibrated in CCDStack.

Soul Nebula closeup
Nebula in natural color. Narrowband channels are mixed to match visible spectrum. Red=80% H-alpha+20% S-II, Green=O-III and Blue=80% O-III+20% H-alpha to compensate otherwise missing H-beta.
Nebula in HST-palette, Red=S-II, Green=H-a and Blue=O-III
The nebula season is kind of over but up here, 65N, it's still very possible to shoot some nebulae.
The Soul nebula, IC 1848, was in western sky at elevation of 55 degrees when I started imaging, at Nine a clock. I took last images at four in a morning, at that time the elevation was about 30 degrees and it was just past the Northern moust point at a sky. Evem though I spen whole night shooting this, poor transparency, speeding clouds and, due previous, lost guidestar, I was able to use only Seven 20min. frames for this.
Color for the final image are taken from my older narrowband image from 2008, the original Blog post can be found here: http://astroanarchy.blogspot.com/2008/10/heart-soul.html
