NGC 6445 and 6440

Hi All,

This is a nice FOV and the planetary is quite a hard object as it has some bright parts and some extended Ha regions which really take some teasing out.

I found the colour balance to be hard to get right, I couldn't get enough red into the PN without the star colours going haywire.

Anyway, here 'tis.

L, Ha, R, G, B image (120, 120, 24, 24, 24 minutes). L & Ha blended 50:50 in CCDStack.

Usual telescopic gear (listed below).

Cheers
Stuart
