Description

Omega Centauri, NGC 5139. This target reached a altitude of 10.5 degrees above the horizon at my location and 5.75 times the amount of atmosphere at the zenith, but came out better than expected. Not many subs either- 5x60s each of RGB and no flats or darks! Needless to say, I had to boost the R and B channels quite a bit due to scattering of shorter wavelengths. This was more of a "let's see what happens" than a serious attempt.
