Description

The lesson learnt from this target: More data is always better. 

Originally I had 1.5hrs of Lum and 1 hour of Ha and I processed the data. The result was acceptable.... but I wondered what more data would be like... to which I spent another (increasingly rare) clear night on this target and added 3.5hours more of Lum and 3 hours of Ha... the result was totally different. 

I was able to get out a lot more detail in the galaxy as well as impression of IFN! If another clear night comes up, I might add more Lum data!
