Description

First time I have been able to take my astro gear with me to rural France to visit one of my sisters. The skies are much clearer than back home in Yorkshire and there is practically no light pollution. The Milky Way was brilliantly apparent overhead.

Also first time I have tried to combine RGB data from the 2600MC (no filter other than the one fitted to the camera) with data (in this case L) from the 2600MM. The processing was trickier than I expected. If anyone can point to a PI tutorial that would be much appreciated.
