Description

I imaged M106 on and off this March. I took OIII and Ha during the full moon but got some bad gradients from light leaks as is common with reflectors. I might reshoot the narrowband during the new moon.

L 168x45”

R 96x120”

G 83x120”

B 83x120”

Ha 37x300”

OIII 48x300”

Description: Reduced the mix of OIII it was adding a dark band around the galaxy core (it's still there but like 15%). Also added more saturation to the galaxy and stars(maybe too much). Lost the yellow in the core but I think it still looks better than my first version.
