Description

My second attempt to image these two. Last time with a C8 and a 450D, this time with a refractor and an ASI294MC. This attempt badly affected by the moon, which has washed out some of the colour. Combined L_Enhance & L_Pro images using HDR techniques which has sort of worked, might try NB-RGB Combination and see if I can bring out more red.
