M20
Another Astrofest image - M20 taken early in the week. This one is 50 subs - just under three hours in total LRGB with the RGB binned 2x2 using the Meade SN10 and QSI. All processed in PI.
Here's the high res version:

I like it, nice star colour and a smooth image. Plenty of detail also.

How are you churning them out already? I'm still hungover :-)
Looking good. Love the colours. Beautifully saturated yet they seem subtle. The transition between blue and red is great.
Stars look a bit funny though.

Nice Peter,
Good to see the SN 10 putting to good use. I still haven't had a chance given the clouds in Melbourne.

Beautiful shot. I so wish I could have gone. Now missed it two years in a row.

Loving the wispy dusty stuff that defines the lobes.

nice work Peter. You have managed to keep the saturation under control while still getting across the impact of the object - impressive

Thanks for the feedback. I'm really happy with the SN10. Very satisfying to get some results after months of modifying and tweaking collimation.
I'm also really happy to have a half decent M20 image as I've tried and failed multiple times before.
I've spent a lot more time researching PI since processing this so might have to have another try in an attempt to improve the star profiles.
