I had been wanting image this for awhile with the new setup I currently have. Although this isn't any where near perfect, its probably the best work I have done to date.

I found it hard to process with the limited data I had, it sure did pose a real challenge. I went light with the blending of Ha, it seemed to flood the red channel to much using NBRGBCombination. Just another thing I need to work on time permitting. Thanks for stopping by and having a look.


Taken from my backyard observatory.
Mount NEQ6 belt modded (still needs adjustment)
ASI 1600mm Pro gain 76 cooling to -10
Newtonian 10 inch F4.7
LRGB-Ha 180 secs for total of 2 hours
