Description

It is nice having like-minded friends that push you to do better. This is a reprocess of my my Leo Triplet data from last week. I know even this can be improved upon but when I saw these colors start to shine, I had to get it out there.

Thanks, Mason!

This image comprises 4 hours of 5 minute individual frames along with a series of calibration frames. I used a 102mm triplet f/7 refractor, CEM60 mount, 50mm guidescope and a host of software to control the equipment, capture the images and finally process the data.
