Yeah, there are still some artifacts visible in the image, but this was as far as I felt I could push it. The real limitation is my camera, it has Issues - e.g. it gives only 128 grey levels instead of 256, has lots of noise etc. Someday I'll replace it, and that should help a lot.

The colour is probably not quite right, maybe a bit too red/brown, cause of my new lcd screen and the way is shows colours. I'll probably have to fiddle with the settings a bit more on it.

Equipment details:

10" f/6 newtonian, Deep Sky Optics primary mirror
4x TV powermate
fire-i mono camera
Astronomik RGB filters + TruTek filter wheel

Stacked best 500/800 frames in each of R,G,B.

Software: Coriander for Linux to capture the data, Registax & Astra Image under Win2k for processing.

Thanks for the comments :-)
