Horse Head 80mm luminance

I only had a little more than an hour before the cloud came in.
Had just changed to the red filter and the screen went blank...oh its all gone.
Anyways I mangaged to run my exposure time out to 35 seconds..but there are some oval stars in there but that is because I have not measured the distance between sensor and field flatner...anyways I satcked what I had and ran the result thru star tools and removed a great deal of noise as I had gain at 250....then made four copies coloured them in different colours as if I had ovtained rbg and played around to see what I could get..here it is …

You're setting the bar pretty high for us with that fancy camera Alex :)

Thanks Tony but its the dark site I recon.

Actually I think it may have been 300 gain...I know I was pushing it and certainly gave 300 a run but I cant remember if I dialed back to 250.
I have yet to get everything to work and get exposure time and datks and flats...I hope to have another go tonight but my opperation is tomorrow...I think I will take a nap now and build up some sleep credit.
