Wow, thanks for the kind feedback guys.
I’ve been reading and watching a lot of video tutorials. Learnt a fair bit about noise reduction which has helped also colour saturation and masking. I still used darks, bias and flats Jimmy. 50 dark, 250 bias and I think 50 flats at that stage but I use 70 now. It was over a few nights and at that point it was only visible from 2am at my place so early morning starts.
I think I am going to have this printed on canvas or acrylic and hang it in a panorama format on my lounge room wall. I’m pretty happy with it although I know it could be a lot better.
Thankfully the clouds have rolled away tonight but I think it’s only for tonight so I’m going to make the most of it and get some more data on ngc253.
