Description

With just one day left in the dark cycle and inclement weather on the way, I thought I'd take a shot at M82. I was aiming to get 2 hours of each L, R, G and B, but with the wind picking up, I could only manage 2L, 1R, 2B and no G. What you see here uses a synthetic green of .8B + .2R. That seemed to provide the right color as the green filter does pass more blue than red.
