NGC3132 - GStar with RGB

This image represents the first time I've produced a reasonable LRGB image with the GStar-EX.

LX90-8" @ 2000mm focal length; unguided; GStar-EX @ 128x (2.56 sec exposures) on Friday 22nd Jan 2010 (L) and Friday 19th February (RGB).

Six hundred and ten L images; 225 R; 223 G; 272 B; , Drizzle-stacked in Nebulosity and combined in Photoshop CS2.

I am not sure how I can reduce the central star bloom in this image - if anyone has ideas, I'd be pleased to hear of possible methods.

Many thanks to the other astrophotographers on this forum whose amazing images continue to impress me with new views of what's out there.

Regards,
Tony Barry
