Description

Here is a view of the Western Veil and Pickerings Triangle in HSO.  For this integration I rejected well over half of the data due to the ongoing smoke here in the western US. The main tool for this was setting an aggressive star count threshold in PixInsights SubFrame selector tool. 

Data was collected over nine sessions. My goal in processing was to do a natural balance of all three channels. Starnet was used to process stars separately. I used drizzle integration  as well and that created some massive files that choked my laptop and prompted me to move forward on a dedicated PixInsight machine (Ryzan 9550).
