Nice work Waqar

I like the framing to include M20.

10 hrs well spent and well done :thumbsup:

A very good image. Perhaps the sharpening is a bit too aggressive but it sure is showing up a surprising amount of detail.

oh wow, this one's incredible. L-Extreme as well? I would never have guessed. Your processing skills are top notch. Keen to write up a tutorial?

[Waqar]

Thank you mate :)

[Waqar]

Thanks mate. haha yea i think i got a little carried away with sharpening in the core :P

[Waqar]

thank you very much :)

unfortunately i lack the stamina on the keyboard to write up a tutorial but might one day end up making a screen record video with voice over.

[AdamJL]

Perfect. I don't like reading tutorials anyway and prefer videos :)
Get cracking :evil2: :rofl:

[Waqar]

Very nice, I have started imaging with a QHY294M. Are you using 47M mode?

[Waqar]

Thanks :)

[Waqar]

Thanks. The QHY294c i have is not the pro version so it doesnt have 47m mode. i think its locked at 11.6m
