2nd Attempt- Lambda Centauri Nebula RGB QHY9

My second attempt at RGB imaging. This time using some of the tips from Jase on my previous image. I was a little disappointed with the result but felt a bit better today when I found out we had a fire burning in the hills opposite my site. The fire started from a lightening strike and burnt quite well with the strong winds. There was quite a smoke haze when I went to work today.

The image is a 30min - 30 min -30 min RGB. In 5 min subs. Fully calibrated with Darks, Flats and Bias images. Stacked in IP3 and captured with QHY9 using Custom Scientific RGB filters and my Tak FS102 APO.

I still have a long way to go but am enjoying the challenge. Processing is still the biggest thing to learn and maintain.

If the colour is way off it is my fault for not having calibrated my monitor since the rebuild.

Thanks for looking
