Hey everyone!
So last year I had the amazing opportunity to purchase a setup and send it to the Obstech observatory down in Chile. Teaming up with @Deep Sky West (Lloyd) and @Tolga (all credit goes to these two, as everyone knows they are extremely talented) the setup has been producing some awesome data.
I’m doing a processing competition with data from the scope and offering a 4 month subscription to the setup. The raw data is of the Pencil Nebula, around 30 hours worth, Ha/O/LRGB. From these submissions myself and a panel of judges will pick the top 10, who then get to edit a more difficult data set (hint: it’s a dusty galaxy) in LRGB.
Submission deadline is Mar 31. Please email image to chilecdk17@gmail.com, and any questions you may have about it.
The master frames are found at https://drive.google.com/drive/mobile/folders/1K4AtOxhrJPcL58rZ6JKilr23tOt9896d?usp=sharing
You can download them in either 32 bit .xisf or .tiff whichever you prefer.
Best part of it all is to see the amazing talent here and what people can do with data! Feel free to make your image as unique as you want or to go in any direction you want with it. When it comes to the galaxy data (which I’ll put in the drive folder soon), everyone will also get the chance to play around with it.
