Fine tuning the newt

I took a picture of this nebula a few weeks ago, but I was not happy with a few things in it. I spent most of last night on collimation, guiding and focus all the basics to get tight round stars. At the end of the night this was one colour frame each at 3minutes binned 2x2 and 2 10 minute hydrogen alpha frames. I am not entirely happy with my processing, the colour balance is out at the moment but I will reprocess later today.

I have work now but I am STOKED at the guiding and collimation improvements.

All the work was worth it I think. Let me know what you guys think.
