Description

This is a combination of 3 data sets: one I shot early in my AP journey from my back yard, one I shot from a dark site in Kansas and one shot by my team at Deep Sky West. The old set just contributed Ha. The Kansas set contributed Lum and Ha and the DSW set contributed the RGB and a bit of Lum. Given that these sets were not planned to be combined there are big rotations and translations among them forcing a significant crop making this a close up even though the scopes were operating between 550 and 714mm
