Description

Have had some good seeing and looking to see what I can do with smaller objects now that the nebula season is passing me by. Theoretically my system delivers about 2 arcsec/pixel and my seeing is never going to be better than that, maybe the images will turn out OK.

I tried this with drizzled L versus non-drizzled and saw no difference. This is non-drizzled.

Revision used a new L flat that was MURE denoised. SNR ratio of L went up.

Final version also using drizzle techniques that substantially tightened stars in GC. Square stars turned round... image is twice the size.
