Description

Well I made the leap into the mono world, adding a ZWO ASI6200MM to the inventory.  I chose Chroma 3nm Sii and Oiii and 5nm Ha.  This is my very first light and narrow-band mono process and I am pretty happy with the result.  I have been battling some auto focus issues so the focus is not quite as good as it could be.  I had hoped to add some RGB stars, but I am having a problem with reflection artifacts in my flats.   Perhaps once I chase that issue down I will add a revision.  Also I had an issue with the installation of the Sii filter and had to throw away a lot of subs.  I will add more Sii data in the revision as well.  Clear nights have been hard to come by this year, which is frustrating because this is the best season to image in South Florida.
