Description

Hi,

This is my first attempt on this target, it is still a work in progress I need to collect much more data. Taking into account how it looked from the subs it was a surprise that the nebula poped out.

I think the next iteration will be with a LP filter so the starfiled is filtered out.

[EDIT]

Original Data:

37 lights of 120 secs.

Gain 117

Temp -15

Darks 36

Flats 30

Bias 30

New data processed with a field flattener / reductor and the Optolong LPro filter, only 26 of 50 subs where suitable to be stacked.

CS.
