Description

LRGB the Luminance taken over 2 nights. Calibrated in Nebulosity3.Combined in Maxim. Played about with in CS2 using some Annie's actions.

Will be getting more subs when the weather permits.

Added 80 minutes of Luminance from the 26th.

Rev C: Another Pixinsight reprocess from the 16th April 2016 amazed at how much was hidden before.

Rev D: re-did this again 25th May 16 as my PI techniques improve. Same data reprocessed from the original stacks. I have a better understanding of Mure denoise and was more careful with DBE, where I only used a few points as there is hardly any background in the image. Overall this has better colour and more of the brown nebula has been brought to light.
