NGC6559 Vivid Banana

Hi folks. This is my 4th mono (Ha)LRGB image - lots to learn. In addition to the technical aspects of processing and editing mono data, the biggest difference is the time it takes to produce an image - collecting data and producing an image is now a dedicated project (which is quite enjoyable). I produced a version of this image with less visible stars however I preferred this one as it preserved the sense of dense stars fields in the area.

EdgeHD 8" with 0.7 R, ASI294MM, Antlia LRGB, Optolong Ha
Shot across 3 nights - 11hrs 36mins total
L: 26 x 180s; 15 x 300s
R: 30 x 180s
G: 30 x 180s
B: 30 x 180s
Ha: 91 x 180s
Stacked and edited in PI, finished in PS.

Higher-res version here. Any feedback gratefully received. Thanks for looking. Alex
