Description

I know that everybody images this. For me, this was the first deep sky object I imaged when I started this avocation back in February. So I wanted to make a comparison between the two to see how I've progressed. Still, this is a challenging subject and I incorporated some short exposures.

I think this is my best image by far... I increased the integration time greatly, got good guiding, good skies, and no Windows Update disasters...

Maybe I've graduated from Novice to Beginner, lol.

I finished the Sii data last night and might incorporate it if I can find a pallete I like.

Any comments, criticism, and advice are highly appreciated.
