Taken me a few nights to get 4.75 hours of data, mostly because I haven't woken up to refocus. Like last night, planned on getting up at 1am to refocus, woke up at 4:30 so missed on another potential 3 hours of imaging. Same thing the night before. Moral of the story, need to get automated focusing setup (Meru has a draft print of a bracket on the way) so then I can blissfully sleep through the night
This is a combination of 22 frames ranging from 10-30 min (mostly 15m). Haven't done any processing other than play with the curves. As noisy as the KAF-8300 is in narrowband, it does a pretty reasonable job
Towards to the top and bottom of the frame there are some lines from stacking, still playing with rejection to try to remove those. They all but disappear if I do a VERY hard rejection but then it damages the brighter stars.
Realistically I probably shouldn't even bother starting to image this for another few months, do it when it is higher in the sky and all that. It is so big and bright though
