M20 - a work in progress

[RugbyRene]

So I'm starting work on a new target. M20. I love the colours I can get from this nebula.

This is a work in progress. I had major issues with guiding & had to have a serious talk to my mount. :rofl:

The attached image represents 4hr 24 mins of stacked lights only. No calibration frames! These will come later when I've captured more data.

Here's the details:
Esprit 100
ASI294 (cooled to -20)
Best 132 subs @ 120sec
IDAS D1 filter
AZ-EQ6 mount
Bortle 6 skies
Stacked in DSS
Very quick process in PixInsight (crop, DBE, BN, Auto colour, SCNR)

I'll post the final image when I get at least 10 hrs of data.

I think it already looks really good Rene - looking forward to the final version :thumbsup:

You are making a good start.:)

Pretty cool. I reckon you should bump the saturation in the stars a little. :thumbsup:
