Description

After reading about this target, I wanted to give it a shot without expecting much. The target is fairly dim, especially against my skies. The subframes were taken last year and combined into channel masters. Unfortunately, I can no longer recall how much total time the image represents. Regardless of actual minutes, it wasn't quite enough. I worked through several rounds of masked curves in PI until, finally, the image seemed to fall apart.

I think I'll wait until I get a bigger OTA and then pour a lot of time into it, along with some Ha filtering.
