Meade 14" LX200R
SBIG STL-11K
1 hour exposure, RGB

No idea where the red gradient is coming from :(

Nice detail in the arms, Benny, but the overexposed core detracts from the image.

You should do some layer masking with a shorter exposure (or less processed version) of the core.

Thats a cracker shot Benny, but like Mike mentions you might have to reprocess it and control the burned out central area..Other than that its a fine image! :thumbsup:

cheers fellas :)

I agree with you on the core, I was going to do some shorter exposure to cater for it but the cold and it being about 80% humidity last night caused the scope to fog up lol hopefully I'll get onto it tonight..
