Due the phase of the moon, and the fact 5 million people who live just north of me like to have their lights on at night, the colour data on my earlier h-alpha effort is a little thin....
to quote Pyton (of the Monty kind): just a tiny slither....
but what the heck...I'm in lockdown and slapped it onto the h-alpha set anyway.
The result reminds me of how my eyes felt after operating the QF12 into Sydney at dawn (the red eye of all red eye's)...but I digress...
Despite the thin colour data and rubbish seeing I did my best to "respect the light". As a result the outer chevrons are visible, but quite muted
Interestingly while the cometary globules recorded by my RC16 are not as fine as Paul's excellent recent RC8 effort...
Yet the bulk of the RC16 nebula looks lees smoothed and more structured. I have no idea why this would be so. Perhaps another few hours of RGB will address this.
Excuses aside.....
