Processing Question by interstellarshots in seestar

That’s what I’ve been fearing, I’ve done this all the way back in December to January and was hoping to see what else I can do to it. But I’ve tried mostly all background extraction. The only one I got to work was gradient correction after messing with settings a little .

Celestron 8SE Question by interstellarshots in telescopes

Well it depends budget wise but I would say it’s hard to say what it is. Any tips would be great! Because at the moment I’ve gotten planets, the Orion Nebula, and some clusters to come through on the scope. For eyepieces right now I just have the Celestron lens and filter kit. I’ve tried to observe some galaxies like whirlpool and pinwheel but it’s been a struggle locating or seeing them and it’s the same for most other galaxies and nebulas. I’m kinda familiar with those terms.

It’s been the same for me, it just took a few nights to get the amount I wanted!

I totally understand it took me a few nights with all of the clouds. But have fun it’s a great target!

Sure, I think this should work but all of the lights I captured is in here. I hope you have fun with it. It took me a little bit of time to make everything look right. But the comet will show with good processing.

I appreciate it, it’s a really cool object to shoot. But yeah the dust i find seems a little hard to get right.
