2 subs on a Dumbbell

Only managed two on this as was still learning the ropes on the 2nd night Leyburn. On a side Note, Ive been using Registax for past yrs and have recently downloaded the late DSS, so this I processed from the 32bit Auto-Tiff, man, that made life a lot easier.

Ive looked at some web images and there are a few colour variation on this target, so I went with the blue tones in the central area which held the detail in there well. The Tiff file's genuine colour in this area was greenish, but blue seemed a bit more punchy to me !

I'm not sure of the general sky tone in this result, and felt the need to subtract color noise from sky color between stars and shift the color ballance a tad, so, hope it looks natural ?

Two Subs 8mins each, qhy-10 -35degs, Gain 40, Offset 120, Scope 10" Newt, Neq6p, ED80 & PHD Guiding
