Description

Struggling with this, I had heard the Squid was faint, but that's an understatement.

I have imaged this at two different Astro camps collecting a total of 5 hours 38 minutes so far.

At Kelling Heath I did 20 minutes binned in Oxygen and it still only partly shows up.

Baader filters

Ha 7nm total of 12 x 600secs

Oiii 8.5nm total of 2 hours 50 minutes in 600 and 1200 secs binned

Sii 8nm 10 x 600 binned.

Mapped HSO

Atik 460EX and WOZS71

Description: Still extremely noisy, but new processing technique has at least lifted the Oiii enough to be visible. I will now pursue getting more data.
