First monochrome image M27 (now in technicolor)

[stanlite]

Hello all

last year i brought a qhy9

since then i have been busy learning how to use the machine and process images better in pixinsight

I have gotten to the point where i feel I need outside criticism to further push my development. I have been working on perfecting my processing my LUM subs before i start combining images so this is just a monochrome M27 - Dumbbell Nebula.

I am particularly seeking advice about my noise reduction (have i overdone it) and deconverlution. Anyway without further rambling here is my image.

M27 - 3x10min subs
8inch newt
QHY9mono

sorry for the low quality on the upload didn't know how to get a better pic to upload without being rejected as to large

Nice image with plenty of detail for only 10x30 mins. Stars look triangular in shape maybe a tracking issue going on there or optics being pinched in there cell.
Clear skies Ken.

Oops meant 10x3 mins.

I think from memory in this sequence I was having issues with tracking as it was my first use of an OAG and first time at 10min subs... more recent images I am working on don't show the issue.

Ok i managed to add RGB channel

This now stands at 30mins of Lums
60mins each of RGB

all at 10mins

Also found a way to load slightly higher quality photo I think
