Description

This has been a bit of a mammoth exercise. The data for this goes back weeks, and I have waited and waited for the weather to break, but it is not doing so! I need a lot more OIII, having only collected 2 hours and 20 minutes worth, and if I am honest under normal circumstances I would have probably only used 60% of that data, as quite a portion of it was rough. I got 85 subs in Ha, 5 hours and 40 minutes worth, and all of the subs were 4 minutes long. So, all in all this is an 8 hour integration time project, but even so the processing was difficult - I tried many versions! Anyway, all things considered I am pleased with what I managed to extract, but I now want to move on to another object, having waited as long as I feel I can for this. At least I managed to get the soap bubble - just!

Thanks everyone...
