hi all,

had one clear night .. well a few hours worth of clear skies one night in about a month.

within that window I managed to get some more data to add to corona australis. I resisted the urge to shoot something new but i'm glad I added to this, looking back on my older version it was a lot noisier, this is noticeably smoother in the dusty parts and the seeing was better.

Haven't quite tamed the glob or star to the upper right but its a step in the right direction. I'll repro no doubt and maybe go for a close up.

I like the colour in the new version Rusty and the noise control in the main dust is better but I like the glob in the original.

Nice one Rusty, definate improvement overall, gathering the extra data paid off and well worth the effort.

repro - less intense glob - not perfect but I think its better.

no idea when the weather will allow anymore imaging, seriously a few hours a month consistently is getting out of control :sadeyes:
