NGC6744 - Big brother to the Milky Way

This is my first attempt at a galaxy in almost 4 years.

This little beauty is situated perfectly in my imaging line of sight to gather data all night long.

This is roughly 2 hours and 20 mins worth of data with 3 min exposures and no filter (need to invest in something to assist with LP I think).

I battled with various different methods in both PI and PS to reduce the colour noise and noise in general, but I am resigned to the fact that I will just need to add much more data to make this amazing little galaxy POP.

Definitely will be adding plenty more data to this one as the nights go on.
