Description

Not much to show for January and February about the same so far - cloudy or Santa Ana winds all night.  Twinkle, twinkle little stars!  Guiding has never gotten better than 1.0 total RMS for weeks.  None-the-less, I imaged on the iconic Horsehead for a couple of nights, kind of a test and I needed a fix with my addiction.  

This image is Ha and Sii combined in Pixmath:  R = Ha; G = Ha*0.6 + Sii*0.4; B = Ha  (thanks @Starman609 !)

Deconvolution, MSLT, Adam Brocks' star de-emphasis and Topaz were my get out of jail cards...and I think they worked very well.  Lots of processing.  I like the color palate for this target.   Hope you enjoy.
