This image comprises of 9 hours 40 minutes of Luminance data at 10 min subs with 1x1 binning and 2 hours and 55 minutes for each red, green and blue filters fir a total of 18 hours and 25 minutes.

Taken with my Tec 140 on AP1100 with SBIG STT 8300.

I have adjusted the colour balance so thank you for the advice. The second image is the adjusted one.

As always criticism and advice welcome.

Wonderful data inside ... and very nice rendition. Advice from me ... remove a violet/red cast over the image and become a great image.

All the best,
Leo
