Description

This one was tough... both imaging and processing wise.
Having only about an hour and a half of exposure time per night I managed to sqeeze about 6 hours of narroband data out of my light polluted sky. With an peak altitude of 25 degrees the scope was basically horizontal the whole time.

I tried to get as much details out of it as possible without it beeing to noisy.

Exposures:

70 x 180s Ha G100 O50
56 x 180s OIII G100 O50
10 x 30s RGB

Hope you like it.
