My first LRGB

This is also my first guided image, and one taken using my new (NEQ6 pro) mount.

By the time I got everything working well enough to even bother taking a test image, NGC 5128 was very low in the sky so I had to keep subs very short.

This is about:
* 20x90s 1x1 bin luminance
* 16x15s 2x2 bin red (forgot to turn on cooling)
* 13x15s 2x2 bin green (forgot to turn on cooling)
* 16x15s 2x2 bin blue (remembered halfway through to turn on cooling)

Processing is really rough too with noise and gradients, but I'm just happy to have gotten my first LRGB image no matter the quality :-)
