My deepest NGC 253.

Hi,

I thought I would have a red hot go at this object. 9 Hours of luminance data and 3 hours of RGB (1 hour each).

Taken with W/O Flt 110 and using a QHY 9 mono at minus 20c. All LRGB have darks and flats applied. The second image is the rotated view and cropped of the first.

Advice always welcome.

Mark

Great work, Mark! Some nice detail there. I'm sure you could squeeze a bit more colour out of it too if you push up the saturation in the brighter parts of the image.

Cheers,
Rick.

You've got some nice data there.
You could try using Lab colour to boost the saturation.

Well done Mark. Excellent resolution and the luminance data really shines through.
