Great shot there, and nicely processed. Impressive reward for time and equipment too.

The night the Green Fairy visited, she distracted me so much that I totally didn't notice that I hadn't included the Globular cluster in the FOV.
But I've since thrown all the data into the pot and came up with this image.
3hrs worth of subs now.
I'm pretty happy with it, but it's given me the inspiration to really try this again without the absinthe.

Despite what Marc says green and astro imaging do not mix
The new image looks very smooth, JJJ

This is a preconception. Everything green is harmless. It's only a matter of concentration
