Description

For this object I decided to take different direction with processing. Instead of trying to stay within the typical color palette, I decided to roam free and this is the result. I was going to just "check-in" on my data as I plan on acquiring more subs (I really want to make a habit of getting ~20 hours per target), but I got sucked in and ended up with at least the first version of this.

I'm pretty happy with it, but between the color choice and orientation I'm not sure the zealots will be!

On a side note, I had to crop out η Gem due to the terrible microlensing effect my ASI1600 was producing. I tried a few different techniques to mitigate it, but eventually decided that the image didn't suffer without it.
