Hi Jeanette,
starting to look good.I think you'll get less noise in your pics if you take more frames.When i take pictures of nebula using the g star i stack more than 500 light frames and 500 dark frames using DSS.
Quote from steve Quirk on g star forum
" I have been making my recordings in batches of 100 frames, that's equal to 4 minutes and 16 seconds. I do this to keep the file sizes managable and processing fairly quick in Registax.
1. For bright objects like globulars and open clusters I do 200 frames (8
min 32s). These don't need to be pushed so much in the processing.
2. For galaxies, neby etc. I do 400 frames (17 mins).
3. Some objects I have done 800 frames (34 mins) and this really helps to
cancel noise when pushing the hell out of an image"



regards philip
