M20 now with added Ha and Lum

Forgot I had 30min of Lum and 30min of Ha I'd taken several weeks ago
so I added it to last nights data and got this:

http://upload.pbase.com/strongmanmike2002/image/62110287/large

The resolution isn't quite as good now because the Lum and Ha were taken in poor seeing, but the image is smoother and deeper with rounder stars
now. The surrounding negulosity is more extensive too. I lost
a bit of field of view though since the two images were taken at
different orientations so I had to crop away the non common bits.

The straight RGB is sharper and more subtle but this image is fuller I think?

Mike

Hi Mike

With images in this class, it is difficult to say which one is "better". Most of the imagers on this forum would be over the moon to have taken anything that remotely approaches the quality of the images you are posting.

Keep on keeping us inspired

Cheers

Dennis
