I've combined 10 hours of narrowband data with about 9 hours from a couple of years back. Yet to work out how to use another 6 hours of RGB data in any way that improves the image.
RC8 on Mach1 (and NEQ6 two years ago) with a ZWO 1600MM-C.
Astrobin version here (https://www.astrobin.com/full/izzd17/0/).
Comments/critique welcome.

P.S. If I'd managed to use the RGB data, I would have exceeded 24 hours of data and been able to deploy my Thor's Day pun. I guess we can all be thankful that didn't happen :)

Nice FOV, silky smooth and good detail. Great work, Paul!

Perhaps just a tad too much noise reduction but really nice shot Paul, cool :thumbsup:

Overall detail and colour are really good, but I agree with Mike about too much noise reduction. There is always a fine line here. Just keep in mind that it's noise *reduction* not noise *elimination*

Thank you Mike. Yes, I've been a bit heavy handed with the noise reduction. Not used to processing narrowband data. BTW put another version on Astrobin with less data in it (only 10 hours) ... But processed a little bit less aggressively too.
:) Yes. Thanks.
Thanks Marc. I guess if teal works for Port Power, it's good enough for an astro pic :)

Nice image Paul. The detail in the helmet is very nice. Looks like everything is ticking along nicely.
