Description

Previously, a member (Norm Hey) posted an image of M51 that was a result of some collaboration amoung a few Cloudy Nights members.
Here is the link to Norm's post and the details of our little collaborative effort.
Whirlpool collaboration project ( Norman Hey ) - AstroBin

Using the same shared M51 Luminance data used by Norm in his rendition of M51, aligned and stacked by Norm, I added some OSC data taken with a ASI2600MC on a WO GT153 at 1208mm f.l.
The OSC data is as follows:
60s x 149 subs
120s x 84 subs
180 x 33 subs

OSC taken from my backyard, B3.  Near Perth, Ont.

Both Luminance and OSC data were processed separately in PI and then combined in PI using LRGB Combination.
