Thanks John
Another few hours on this object would improve it some what but it’s certainly a battle dampening the noise whilst maintaining detail in post processing.
I spend twice the hours processing in Sydney than I do at my Dome down south under dark skies , it’s an absolute dream down there when the subs come in with dark background and so much detail , in Sydney when the subs come in it’s a heavy green cast background and not much detail on the object. This object was just a tiny small smear in the centre of the image ( which represented the core ) You’ve gotta have a keen eye to fine tune the centre these dim galaxies as you could easily mistake the core for small Star.
It makes the hobby more challenging, keeps you focused
Cheers
Martin
