M22
Object: M22 (NGC6656)
Globular Cluster
Const.: Sagittarius
Camera: STL11000M Scope: Tele Vue NP-127is Mount:
Losmandy Titan
Filter(s): L:R:G:B Exposure: 16x1m:8x1m:8x1m:8x1m blank
The globular cluster M22 in Sagittarius. The globular cluster NGC6642 also visible in upper right quadrant of the full-frame image. This image was acquired using an STL11000M CCD camera on a Tele Vue NP-127is. It is a color composite of 16 minutes of unfiltered luminance and 8 minutes each of red, green and blue filtered data. The images were calibrated and stacked and 32 iterations of Lucy-Richardson deconvolution were performed. The composite image was auto color balanced using AIP4Win V2. This image has been cropped down from its original size of 4008x2672. Clicking on the image will display a full-frame view

Globular Cluster
Const.: Sagittarius
Camera: SXV-H9 Scope: Vixen R200SS Mount: Losmandy Titan
Filter(s): IR block Exposure: 14x30s TeleVue Paracorr
The globular cluster M22 in Sagittarius. This image is a stack of 4 two minute exposures using an SXV-H9 CCD camera on a Vixen R200SS 8" f/4 Newtonian equipped with a Paracorr. The exposures were calibrated, defect-corrected and stacked using AIP4WIN. This image has been resampled down from its original size of 1392x1040.
