Hello all
I wasn't actually going to post this image, since the data was collected during the days following the initial set up at SRO, when guiding and focusing were being tweaked and then there was the build up to full moon. The initial intent was just to blend RGB stars into the NB data, but that thought went even further when I started blending OIII and Ha into the RGB star data. That produced an astounding image all on its own, even before I started to add in the 3-filter NB data.
Image details:
Telescope: Planewave CDK 17”
Camera: Apogee U16M
Filters: Astrodon
Exposure Details: R(15mins)G(15mins)B(15mins)L(Syn)(7 10mins)SII(370mins)Ha(160mins)OIII( 180mins) Total exposure time 12.5 hours.

The combination worked really well I think.
Hope you like it.
cheers
