Ngc 300

Continuing my experiment adding Ha to LRGB galaxy shots, I added an hour of Ha to NGC 300.

This is a fainter target than others I've attempted recently. I comprises 54x300s L, 4 x 900s Ha and 18x300s each RGB. Taken with QSI 583 on RC8.

I have a colour gradient in the background that I'm finding hard to remove - LP I guess. I plan on collecting another couple of hours L tonight to try and get the SNR in the galaxy up so I can drop the black point a bit to even the background. If anyone has any PI suggestions, I'd appreciate them.

Thanks for looking

Pete
