Description

About a month and a half ago, I took 45 subs at 2 minutes each, at the end of an imaging run of something else - which I cannot remember! The bloating of the stars with the Cassegrain f12, has been a struggle for me, but I feel I have improved things a bit, and so here is my offering of M46. I have changed my processing technique a little, to try and overcome the more excessive bloating, and I trust this will progress over time. So, 90 minutes imaging time. Thanks for your support everyone...
