I like it.
What is the combination, SHO?

Looking good so far!
Another 5-10 hrs will really bring the fine nebulosity out.

thanks wil, full details are on the linked 'bin page and i would strongly encourage viewing that version over this 200kb atrocity; but yea its a HaSHO combination. i like to tweak the colours slightly more towards red/orange than gold. added a ha lum layer to try to mitigate the low integration time and make the nebula structure stand out from the background a little better.

gracias andy. agree i need a lot more integration time on this one, but alas clouds have rolled back in up here for the next couple of weeks so decided to process this lot anyway! the 2hrs sii was noisy, as was the 1.5hrs oiii, and whilst ha came out reasonably clean, the net signal was low. i'd like to get 10hrs per chan on this one. that'd be 3.5 nights work back in july / august when it was clear most nights. these days, thats 2-3 months worth of clear nights. lol straya. land of extremes.
