Description

A lot of experimentation with this image.

294MM pro in BIN1 mode with Ha

294MC pro with Optolong L-Extreme filter for Ha and OIII

I am a bit frustrated with the star halos with the Baader OIII f2 filter. Looking for an alternative. In the meantime, playing around with some techniques with what I have. Attempted to layer in RGB stars with little success.

Hope you enjoy and clear skies.

About 3 hours of RGB data with Optolong L-Extreme at 120 gain for 180 seconds

About 3 hours of Ha with Baader f2 filter at 120 gain for 180 seconds at BIN1 with 294MM pro.

The data at BIN1 with MMPro is the best I have ever taken.

I used the Ha as luminance for the HOO mapped image with the Optolong L-extreme
