My NGC 1097

I managed to get out last night and image the October Imaging Challenge - NGC 1097

I cleaned my filters and CCD window and it made a hell of a difference with fewer and much less obvious dust motes, so this image has no darks and no flats!

Autoguiding was spot on and all of the 30 odd subs at 4 - 6 min each were good

It's an LRGB = 100 20 20 24 min

Deffinitely not enough colour data under light polluted skies (I should have binned the RGB 2X2... doh!) but I did ma best with what I had.

Cheers
