Description

This and a version with Ha added posted separately are my first effort with decent data, though still a little thin, and my second run through Pixinsight. My own gear still on backorder, I tried out iTelescope to get the data used for the image. Anyhow, there’s lots I’d like to go back and work on – core got away from me, had trouble with ringing while deconvoluting, went too far with NR on the background I think and a little too dark, gotta’ get better at masks, particularly range selection type….to start with…., but I really need to stare at something different for hours on end, so posting here for closure

Subs were pre-calibrated, fwiw.

Description: Found a critical flaw in my workflow....lack of patience. The core is improved in this revision and better masking didn't leave some of the hard borders that are in the original. Plenty of job security left, though....
