Description

First test with a Antlia 3nm Ha filter.  
I started out just trying a HaRGB and decided on a two panel mosaic. 

Ha from EvoGuide50-ED with 183MM acquired simultaneously with OSC from AstroTech AT65Q with 294MC.  The Ha-RGB did not process well so I decided to capture one evening using ZWO 7nm Oiii and Sii filters with the Redcat51 (same FOV as EvoGuideED).  Ended up using the OSC data just for stars only.  Ha was used as the Lum layer.

Stacked and mosaic generation in Astropixel processor.  Two exports at two different stretch levels of the SHO blend, stars removed and modified in ACDSee.  OSC starfield generation and layered onto SHO starless to create final image.

3nm Ha: 8hr 30min, 15min sub's
7nm Oiii: 3hr 20min, 5min sub's
7nm Sii: 4hr 5min, 5min sub's
OSC: 8hr 5min, 10sec sub's 

Total integration: 24hr exactly
