ETA Car

Hi all,
Finally got a reasonable night on Saturday.
Still a fair bit of smoke haze about but clearest it's been for a while.
Guiding wasn't too bad as it's the first time I've tried 5 min subs.
I was so tired that I fell asleep in my chair outside and woke up at about 5am

Just a quick process a different way for a test.
I used Astro Pixel Processor to stack only and then loaded the *.fits file into PS and used Fits Liberator and saved 3 colour channels and then combined them in Photoshop.
A bit of stretching and sharpening, no cropping and a quick play with the colours a bit.
A totally different way but it didn't turn out that bad.
I'll try the usual Startools and then APP as well and check the difference.

20 x 5 mins Lights
Darks, Flats, and Bias subracted
Guided Canon 450d modes.
Skywatcher 150mm BD newt
Processed in APP and PS.

Cheers
Andy
