Managed to get some partial SII and OIII data prior to the weather closing in.

I still find getting the right colour mix in NB to be a challenge, and suspect more data will help.

Nice Pete but I reckon you need to get this looking more sandy colour. Personal choice I guess. Great expanse though.

Peter,

Its certainly getting there.
I am currently doing some multiple object in NB myself and am also struggling at getting the right colour balance.

I hope you don't mind but I had a play with your image using ken crawfords tutorial and this is the result that I got. May not be what you want but I don't think getting more data has anything to do with it.

Cheers
Mark

Thanks for your input guys. There are some doubts over SII filter I am using
as it simply isn't passing much SII !

There is a sheer lack of data there, but I'll have a better unstanding of what's going on next month when the filter gets tested....

For what its worth my Astrodon 5nm S11 filter does not pass on much either. It seems S11 is generally the weakest of the 3 NB filters by a long way.

Indeed there isn't much there!

But having seen data from identical scopes with differing SII filters and having used 1.25" SII from CS, I'm suspecting all animals are not equal :)
