Thanks Greg...I ended up tossing quite a few frames that weren't up to par.
and only stacked frames with a high quality setting (MaxImCCD has a nice rejection routine based on various parameters).

The Alluna also has a great focal length for galaxies in general, but as you know all too well, seeing is paramount to getting a good result.

Thanks Allan. Let's see...Capture, calibration and image quality sifting with MaxImCCD, Image registration and stack with Pixinsight, which also handled the gradient removal. RGB combination in MaxIm, with L and Ha layered in Photoshop....which works for me....but begs the question:

....what does everyone else use to capture and assemble their data with?
and why? (always interested to hear about software that is the right tool for the job)
