Description

Some nebulosity in the LMC near the tarantula nebula...this is rising for me in the morning and is firmly in the light dome of Brisbane City so even in SHO get some severe gradients to manage.

Back with my 0.75x reducer here and have changed to a Mk2 ZWO filter wheel and large OAG so I now have bolt on image train for all but a 12mm extension (my weak link that needs strenthening). Gradually improving the tilt, but it's a balance between getting back space and tilt plate right.

This is around 10hours. I had planned another panel for a mosaic but haven't mastered it yet in APP for images with such strong gradients yet so this is just the one panel.

Stacked in APP, recombied and processed in Startools and finished in PS.
