Description

At last a couple of clear nights!  

First shot at integrating SII data but the posted image is the result of multiple attempts at processing! The Ha and OIII data was obtained by splitting the channels from the L-Extreme image. The SII data from a OSC is pretty noisy (as expected) but workable. The nearly full moon probably didn't help any.

Description: I prefer the colour palette on this version but it's lacking some of the detail of the original revision - will have to take another look at the processing to figure out what happened.

C

Description: A little more attention paid to processing this version with better control over noise.
