Description

Testing new 125 under heavily moonlit sky

Rev A - New Borg 125 testing against a previously shot target for comparison, improved arcpixels from 2.69 to 2.27 and slightly faster scope. No 125 flats as yet used 101 for now...

Rev B - Seeing how deep the data is

Rev C - Temp final version - will add some more data tomorrow weather permitting.

Rev D - All felt a bit fluffy and overdone, so a redo to liven back up - prefer this version.

Rev E - Final tweaks until new data can be added - thanks for looking

rev F - Added some old binx2 data from 101 for review puposes

Rev G - enhanced the horsehead with some Ha in Lum to restore some tonal range.

Rev H - Tried to add more star colour - that's all I can do for now and off t'pub!

Rev I - Little colour tweak mainly in blue. Waiting for clear skies now to add Ha

Rev J - Enhanced NGC 2023 area a little and have some more Ha so used to add some more detail to horse head area - will now be leaving until I have full set of RGB on the 125.

Thanks for looking and support.

Rev K - This is more for technical accuracy, even with my basic knowledge of fusion and stars should have work out Altinak could not be yellow! So corrected that issue now.

Rev L - Apologies lol, just added some more contrast into the curtain area as was all a little flat

Rev M - and dealt with red halos around the bottom - cant do anything about the others

Rev N - Think I figured out a method to deal with the large halos in the curtain area (heavily blurred copy selectively re-layered a colour layer). Deals with my last issue on the image. Thanks for looking.
