Description

I think I've processed this ten times or more now from the ground up, not happy with the result until the later iterations, and excited to finally have this version that I'm sufficiently happy with!
I could spend some more time on this to get some better coverage in the Ha region at the bottom of the image, but for now I'm happy to share this version.

ZWO ASI2600MC Pro, Rokinon 135mm, HEQ5 Pro mount
