M104, the "Sombrero galaxy" as an Anaglyph Red/Cyan 3D



You'll need Red/Cyan Eyeglasses to be able to see this image right. Note, if you have a Red and Green filters, you can use them! Red goes to Left eye.
NOTE! This is a personal vision about forms and shapes, based on some known facts and an artistic impression

Something new!




FIRST LIGHT
for Northern Galactic members telescope 


My first target was a M 104, the "Sombrero galaxy"

Note, image is kind of "preview", since all the calibration files are not yet taken.


I have been a member of Northern Galactic astronomical  group for some time now. Recently  they have opened up a possibility for members  to remote operate a great astronomical instrument in Australia.



This has been a wonderful opportunity for me to use a "never-ever-have-enough-money-for-it" instrument and secondly this is my first ever possibility to shoot from a dark location!

Technical details for M104 image:
Instrument information in an image.
Exposures
25x300s for the Luminance and 4x300s / RGB-channel
Only Dark frame calibrated, since Flats are not ready yet.


For me, it's very confusing to shoot from the Southern hemisphere, since the sky is rotating to wrong direction! Targets, and Sun, rice from West and go down to East.  Beside that, constellations are new to me.
I'm all thrilled!

Special thanks to Bert Candusio for making this possible for me!

A collection of anaglyph, still motion, 3D-movies



Note!
Red/Cyan 3D glasses required for viewing. 
If you have a Red and Green filters, you can use them! Red goes to Left eye.


(You really should get yourself a pair of Red/Cyan eyeglasses! They cost next to nothing and you even can get free ones, if you'll rent a 3D-movie. Anaglyph 3D astronomical images are really cool to look at!)
