M-78: A very hard object

Hello my friends,
There you have my very best effort to image M-78, what a hard object. I think I am still going to capture 8 hours more of luminance, but that is all. I can't say that I am not happy with the result but ....

Let's see when I have some sky to capture more data and add some extra luminance if the overall result gets better.

For this image as it is I already have the following:
Luminance: 22x20minutes

RGB:
8x15minutes + 8x15minutes bin2x2 (for each channel)

Narrow Band:
Ha: 5x30minutes to create Luminance=(30%*Ha+70%*L) and Red=(30%Ha*70%*Red).
O3: 5x30minutes to create Green=(20%*O3+80*green) and Blue=(40%*O3+60%blue)


The link for the full resolution image is here: http://www.astrobin.com/full/71284/B/

Thanks for looking,

Fernando
