Description

I decided to reprocess this using just my RGB data for more natural colors and taking care to not blow out the core and show the trapezium some which is just visible. 

Next up, Galaxy season!! I have a nice upgrade to my other set up that I’m excited to try out. I purchased the Starizona SCT Corrector IV to see how it will pair up with my C8 and APS-C camera sensor. Hopefully, I’ll have some results soon.
