Description

Captured using the Celestron RASA 8 and QHY294M cameras, I wanted to use Unity Gain although I knew I would blow out the star cores much quicker in which has happened. This is a fairly large crop of the image due to filter changing and not orienting the cameras correctly.

I haven't captured any red data as I ran out of time in the night, so this image composes of an hour of data in each L, Ha, G and B channels.
