Ngc2997 now with colour

Decided to image from home with BrisVegas 5Km away and the Moon a little further away.
Managed 10x600 sec and 4x1200 sec Luminance of this nice little galaxy and I was pleased that capturing a reasonable amount of data enabled just levels and curves as well as a little sharpening to lift most of it from the light pollution.
Captured with 10" SCT and 0.63 FR with a QSI583wsg.
Comments welcomed

Managed to get a few hours of 10min subs using my QHY10 camera and added to the luminance already done with registar.
Hope this improves it a bit but the moon really is washing out the colour for this galaxy.
