Maybe my eyes are more sensitive to red than blue.

Thanks Glen. I'd imagine it would be a tough visual target, at least from Oz.

Cheers Alchemy. On reflection, I think I could have processed this differently (could have been a little harder on the noise reduction), but for now it will suffice. Thanks again.

Thanks Fred.

Indeed, it is something different to what we common folk see. The wisps of blue add an extra dimension. Feels like I've been out of the imaging game for a while. Still have one more to process before I continue the photon collection process again. You got those RGB filters in yet?

Yes, very slight elongation is present. The Paramount 1100s just isn't up to the same mark as the Paramount ME with MKS4000.

Nah, to be fair, the conditions were sub optimal, with thin faint (high altitude) cloud present. Looking at the subs again, I'd say it was a guiding problem. I did throw a few subs away due to this. Thanks again.
