This little project has been going on since December.
Has taken a while to capture the data with interruptions due to work, weather etc.
Presented some processing challenges as well due to the dynamic range.
Will be interested in the thoughts of forum members as to how the final image has turned out.
Details are:
Acquisition:
rgb - 15 x 600s, Ha 23 x 1800s
(I did take luminance but finished up not using it as the Ha provided much better detail),
rgbHa - 10 x 300s (added in using the PI HDR Combo tool)
Hardware:
QSI683WS-8
Canon EOS F1.4 Lens @ f5.0
Skywatcher EQ8 mount
Software:
Capture in Maxim DL
Post processing in Pixinsight
Finish off with PS CS6
