Hi folks - excuse the cross-post from Deep Space.
As most of you probably know, Peter Marples has discovered a PSN in PGC18880 in the constellation of Pictor. Once confirmed (and that s very close) this will be the 50th SN for BOSS and a personal 6th for Peter. So I was delighted to image this upon his request.
Actually, this is an early image as last nights heat and humidity basically meant I had to throw all of the colour data away. Things improved in the early hours so I kept the luminance.
So, right now this is LRGB consisting of 3 hours, and 45 minutes each RGB. Taken with the 12.5" RCOS and STL11K. I do plan to go significantly deeper on this and will update the image idc.

Congratulations to Peter and BOSS.
Cheers
Martin
