M65 to fill in time

Hi All,
A quicky while waiting for Haog's to get higher.

12" f5
10x1min L
10x1min each RGB
Darks

Huge image scale Jeff. Looks like there is a lot of detail in there.

A great looking M65 Jeff,

You have captured a lot of detail.

Well done.

Impressive Jeff, very impressive. You binning the colour? Looks like you might be able to extract some more detail on this one. Perhaps a little decon to sharpen it up. Well done.

Thanks for the comments -appreciated.
I thought it looked OK but I'm sure I could do better.
No Jase I didn't bin the colour, but in the processing it became grainy. Maybe because the RGB data was not flated or biased and this came through.
My standard practise is to subtract darks, remove a small column of bad pixels, combine colour, adjust balance, adjust saturation (150%) and maybe unsharp mask.
This may not be the right way, but it seems to give reasonable results for me. I am impressed by others work -it makes mine seem very ordinary.
Any advise is appreciated and most welcome.

By the way, while waiting had time for M64. Same as other but 120sec exp.
Thanks again.
Oh Hoag's is ready to go.
