Hubbles Swan - High Res close up

Given the poor and highly variable seeing conditions I enjoy ... I manually went through and selected the very best frames from the Ha, OIIIRG&B, with which to compose the highest resolution image possible for the conditions, took me a while arggg...

With much less data now the outer regions of the full frame have too much noise and noise reduction looks crap, so here is a close up crop of the good bits only without noise reduction and compiled into a Hubble-like palette. I can safely say this is the best my current seeing conditions will allow as far as detail goes

Look here: Hubbles Swan 100% crop

Those who can't remember the full frame RGB like fairy floss version it's HERE
