Description

First proper galaxy shot with my 10" RC (with 0.8x reducer). Its not yet collimated, but BlurX is being a good wingman and takes care of hiding most of the collimation problems .

Not much to say other than that. I only managed 1h per channel, and Luma got interrupted by clouds so I didnt use it in this process. First time also processing RGB data instead of SHO or osc, so, found it a bit tricky to get a decent color balance.

I wish I could put more integration time into this, but that's just how it goes sometimes. Nonetheless, I think I managed to get a decent result and I'm happy enough to want to share it with everyone!
