Messier 83.

Hi,

This image consists of 10 hours and 10 minutes of data capturing 4 hours and 30 minutes of luminance data and approximately 2 hours of red, green and blue data.

Hi resolution image can be found here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/134809...posted-public/

Telescope: Tec 140mm
Mount: Astrophysics 100
Camera: SBIG STT 8300M

I have over 20 hours of data but after I stacked over 10 hours worth of luminance using Deep Sky Stacker I went through and eliminated the worst subs and then stacked my 4 hours and 30 minute and the stars were less bloated and the galaxy was sharper but maybe that is wrong or right I don't know.

Comments welcome.
