Running Chicken progress

Had a few good clear nights this week. I like to process as I proceed, helps me refine my basic pixinsight skills, try new things, and keep fresh in my mind the overall process. I still have a lot to learn with processing these type of images.

This one is 3 nights / 15.25 hours of 5 minute subs. I got another 7 last night I'll add to the mix. I also plan to get much better stars using the L-Pro filter.

HEQ5, 72ED with 071mc Pro at -5c, Gain 150, L-extreme filter, 300 sec subs x 183 all calibrated. Current stars were 30 shots of 20sec but realised I didn't reduce my gain and blew them out a bit.

Looks like tonight is the last clear night for a week so I'll focus on stars 1st, then maybe keep running for a last lot of subs. All from my bortle 5 backyard in Ipswich Qld.
