One more eagle - Part 2

M16 - Vixen
Starlight Xpress HX-916 camera, Vixen VC200L @ F6.3 scope, TruTek Filters.
L (18 x 300sec), RGB (12 x 150sec Binned X 2).
Maxim DDP and a touch up in PS.

I had a several individual Red,Green and Blue circles show up in this but I just clone stamped most of them out not sure yet where they came from and there's a few left, but it looks like I finally have my filter problems sorted

[edit]
M16 - Tak
Starlight Xpress HX-916 camera, Takahashi FS-102 @ F8 scope, TruTek Filters.
L (7x480sec), RGB (4x240sec Binned x 2).
Maxim DDP and a touch up in PS.
Full Frame Image.

Here is M16 from the Tak. I had to up the exposure time to make up for the difference between F6 and F8 and I had usb hub problems at setup which limited exposure time before the flip. Also seeing wasn't as good tonight either, I think Jupiter was twinking and we had a little fog here as well.

Comparing them both here, I like the 2nd one even though I forgot to balance tonight
