Ngc 6744

One of the most beautiful galaxies in the sky NGC6744 is one I imaged recently but never was happy with the processing.

I reprocessed it and got a far better result.

For some reason there was a green gradient in the data - perhaps some misty thin cloud at one point. Thanks to Russell Croman's gradient Xterminator it was handled.

7 hours LRGB STL11 camera, RCOS 12.5 inch, Astrodon filters from my dark site observatory at 770 metres altitude which is quite high for Australia.
