Description

My third attempt to tackle this (at least for me) very difficult to process target. And a more challenging one for the new Antlia OIII filter, which mastered it with flying colors! In this area are a lot of blue stars (which is unusual, well, a lot of my images that I processed so far did not have that many). And some of them are fairly bright, no halos, soft and smooth, love this filter already 😊. The Baader Hα was compared to the Antlia much worse, a big fat halo on the left star which was quite challenging to get rid of. 

My previous attempts always lacked the OIII signal being strong enough (see version D), and even if it was not as crucial this time (I believe due to the sensitivity of the 6200) I still had to push the OIII channel more than the other 2 channels. Hα is very dominant, but in order to create a more variant and deeper image this was needed.

Due to the horrendous weather here since the beginning of November I am running now lower and lower on my backlog ... this has to change soon 🤞🤞🤞!

CS for all!
