NEQ6 Pro Upgrade.

NEQ6 Pro Upgrade.
The mount is out of action as its getting a major upgrade, the internals all cogs and gears full of backlash are removed. This was the reason why I bought the mount in the first place second hand as I knew of the Upgrade. the upgrade is its replaced with toothed belts and spindles and 100% no backlash.

I was given the task by Carlos to learn and come to terms with mono filters and how to use them. the following photos are NOT MINE but the processing is after I had learnt the way to process the images.. All these are taken on a B/W camera but with filters Ha S2 O3 its how you then put together gives you the colour. so you are going to see colours you have never seen before these are the ELEMENTS that make up the Object. contrast my colour camera version before each group.

I would like to thank Carlos for making his images available to use and learn from I have been lent a filter wheel and a camera so I will try some thing myself to see how the results are on my gear. once the mount comes back.

Please respect the photos as not mine but for you to enjoy, do not copy them..

Its in effect just a different way of taking photos but sure is a lot of work in processing the photos. the results look out of this world though. as an old film photographer its almost too much work to to do all this its no 5 min job. I have to say it was good to have the chance to give it a go. DJ it keeps the brain working and learning.

Peter these are in your skies more than mine, its to me a pleasure to share this type of photo as know there is very few here than can do this. its as I have come to find out very specialised, glad you enjoy the image.
