Anyway I am happy with the Ha. 18 x 10 Min 1x1 binning with darks applied. Taken with W/O Flt 110 and guided with PHD and photoshop cs3.

Any feedback welcome.

Nice Ha shot Mark. You can try to use the Ha channel as a lum and blend the normal color again on top as a soft light blend then tweak colors to taste to give it a bit of punch. That should give you something to start from. Use your stacking program but don't use photoshop to register anything. Not accurate enough. It's best used for blending and colour balance only. Registar is good, CCDStack, maxim DL, IRIS, PixInsight, to many to name ... the choice is yours.
