Hi Guys

Managed to get out last night for the first time in weeks. Recaptured the Lagoon. No clouds but moon was very full. I tried my new robofocus and was it sweet. Just press the button and auto focus in 35 seconds, I was absolutely amazed.

The second image is 10 minutes of Ha with my new Astronomic 6nm Ha filter. Robofocus worked OK on this as well. Self guiding was easy through the filter, I just increased the time to 10 seconds.

I would like to combine the two data sets but cant, as the image scale is different. Any tips or pointers to free software on how to do this, and a good tutorial on LRGB processing would be nice as well.

RGB

12 by 300 sec subs, darks plus flats, UV/IR block
TV85, TV 0.8 reducer on EQ6, self guided with SBIG 2000 XCM
Levels and Curves PS2, Sum combine in Maxim
Reduced to 1200 pixels, 30 % compression
Ha

2 by 300 sec subs, darks plus flats, Ha 6nm filter
TV85, TV 0.8 reducer on EQ6, self guided with SBIG 2000 XCM
Levels and Curves PS2, Sum combine in Maxim
55 % compression

Thanks for looking
