I had a go at the Jewel Box last night.

I've been trying to diagnose some technical issues - mainly flats - so it wasn't really an attempt to take a good shot. Having said that, I'm quite happy with this one.

6 x 180s each in R, G and B and 6 x 300s in L, binned x2. Taken with an RC8 and QSI 583. Processed in PI exclusively (a first for me). Thanks to the DBE function, I could overcome the gradient.

Thanks for looking

That worked quite well, Pete, despite the technical problems!

That's quite a pleasing view. Like what we see visually with a 20-inch newt.

That's a very respectable jewel box

Cheers
