Hi Folks. My LRGB learning continues and this time I've attempted another galaxy, NGC6744. I've finally found a way to produce better and more saturated colours in targets and stars using the L channel ... I would never have figured that out without looking at exemplar LRGB workflows. Using a new (to me) LRGB workflow, this is a completely reworked version compared to that I recently posted in the Beginners Forum. Still have some issues with flats that I'm working through. At some stage, I'll get more B and some Ha too. Details are:
EdgeHD 8" with 0.7 R, ASI294MM, Antlia LRGB
Shot across 2 nights - 11hrs 12mins total
L: 107 x 180s
R: 48 x 180s
G: 49 x 180s
B: 20 x 180s
Stacked and edited in PI, finished in PS. Cropped.
Higher-res version

Any feedback gratefully received. Alex
