Hi
The sky has been pretty bright with haze lately and there were some hideous gradients in the colour data due to strong local lighting, so to get something usable was great
. Image has been heavily cropped - mainly to remove the worst of the remaining gradient regions. I had to do a final colour balance by eye and my eyes are fairly old, so any feedback on colour would be helpful. Will get some Ha next moon and try to work out a good way to blend it in - haven't tried any method yet that I like.
Seeing was about 2.5 arcsec and variable, but about 2/3 of the subs were OK.
Thanks for looking. Regards ray
