Here's my first image in many months after a long spell of bad weather. Everything was working well last night and I managed 13x5mins L and 7x5mins B before the clouds rolled in. Here's the processed Lum. Processing skills are very rusty and I've had to shrink and compress a lot to get it down to 200k.

Thanks fo looking - Comments welcome.

Looks good to me. Hopefully you'll get the R and G soon. I had the same experience with the same object the other night. Ended up with only 2 decent Ha subs between clouds. It's a pretty big target for your setup but there's good detail in there.

Nice work Peter, there's plenty of dust in the image.

Stars are nice and sharp should look great with some RGB

Hope you get some more clear nights soon and get the rest of the data, Peter! I wouldn't mind some clear Brisbane skies myself

Thanks for the feedback. I'm really enjoying the QSI and Sequence Generator - especially the plate solving. Makes coming back to an object on a subsequent night a whole lot easier. Hopefully we'll start to see some more clear nights over the next couple of months.
