I don't do darks (or bias) either with my SX H694 camera, just dither and median combine - easy huh?

Aah, now then...real men just dither and bias with uncooled DSLR,s.
It does help though that's it's a pretty bright object with shedloads of background stars. I have the area around M87 as well but there just wasn't enough data compared to this so it's as noisy as a campanologist,s busmans holiday. By te way, thanks for the comments!

Thank you very much, MnT. I seem to recall there is some pretty faint ha around there so yup, subtle.very beach indeed.

Cheers all
