Description

This is a complete rework of my shot from April using Pixinsight. I wasn't happy with the original color balance so I ran this through SPCC and PCC both gave the same result. I'm happy with it but I have noticed that galaxies have an off white balance using PCC - at least when I do it!

Shot with a tandem rig FLT 132 and ASI 6200 MM for luminance 3 hours, FLT 91 and ASI 2600 MM for RGB 60 mins each. I did use Blur Exterminator on this and it made a differece but for the bright core HDR was the biggest help!
