I think I might steal your idea with the luminance and do something similar on my next project. I find it very frustrating when I need to collect 20-30hr for a decent broadband project from the burbs but can only get one or 2 nights during that time with good seeing conditions. This might make a real difference
Thanks a lot Rodney and Dave

NGC 6744 is actually a low surface brightness galaxy, somewhat flocculent and quite tenuous really, so I tried to reflect that in the final processed version. It looks quite different on phone screens compared to a proper adjusted monitor too.
