M4 and Antares region - DSLR pic

Hi All, last night's efforts attached.

5 x 300sec at 400ISO and 1 x600sec at 800ISO with Canon 40D, IDAS-LPS filter and York Optical ED80 on LXD75 mount using PhD guide software.

I used In camera Noise reduction.

Processed and combined in Images Plus, using star-size reduction, multiple resolution smoothing and sharpening. Shadow and highlighting to bring out some of the nebulosity and various noise reductions (none of which seemed overly effective). Pushing to bring out the nebulosity has brought out the grain.

Comments and advice welcome.

cheers,

Rob
