Description

Cone Nebula recorded Feb 21-22, 2022
Camino Cerrito, Albuquerque, NM
AstroTech AT72ED II / AT2FF Field Corrector / L-eXtreme Ha-OIII Filter / ASI294MC Pro Camera
EQ6R-Pro Mount
72x300s subs@120 Gain ( 6 hours integration)
Reprocessed 3-17-2023 in SiriL/PixInsight  and Blur-Star-NoiseXTerminator /using Bill's (AnotherAstroChannel) & Lukomatico HOO macro and GHT stretch.

I've been learning PixInsight, and I finally found some routines that make sense--specifically those posted on the AnotherAstroChannel  https://youtu.be/_6in5Kvo95s
The HOO process icon that Bill has developed is easy to use.  Coupled with the General Hyperbolic Transfer process in PI, I got the result posted here.  Fast and easy.
