I added another few hours (mostly RGB) on Friday night but it doesn’t seem to have made any real difference. Transparency wasn’t great and I ended up deleting a few hours of Lum that was cloud affected to some degree. Don’t think there is much more I can get out of this region without adding another 6 hours of Lum as I am curious as to whether there is some REALLY faint dust or if it is a flats issue. My brighter background is 123 ADU while the dimmer is 121-120 ADU.

Hubble Deep Field kind of imaging but without Hubble or the depth haha
Out of curiosity I did some faint star searching in Maxim. Faintest star I could find had a Vmag of 22.1 with a SNR of 2.45 (so not overly accurate). The brightest was 10.188 with a SNR that the small window struggled to display.
