Impatient Trifid
I set out with the best intentions of getting really long integration times but just seem to get impatient. I intended to get 9 hours on the Trifid Nebula (and hopefully still will) but this is well short. I expected to get it finished last night but fog came in around 1:30am which put a stop to that. I just needed to take a peek at what I have so far so this is 22x 300sec each for Ha, OIII and SII (cropped). Even with that amount of time I've pushed the processing so much there is noise around the edges. I've seen much better examples on Astrobin with less integration so maybe it's my processing that's off? The Ha is really strong so maybe tonight I will get another hour each for OIII and SII and see how it looks...
Suggestions on integration and processing welcome! If anyone wants to have a go at the data and show me how it should be done just let me know and I'll make it available.
