Description

Well, I thought I'd try my hand at SHO processing, even though I don't foresee getting a CCD camera for awhile. All processing done with PixInsight using Light Vortex Astronomy's tutorials.

Overall, I'm relatively pleased, except for not being able to get rid of the pinkish hue on some of the brighter stars. That, and a bright core.

Then again, still learning all of this processing stuff!

Oh yes, I also rotated the final image, just a personal thing.
