Description

Messier 106 / NGC 4258

Not too much to say about this one, just another Messier galaxy to check off the list.

I did have a small learning experience whilst processing this one on the topic of Star Alignment though. For a while I've been trying to deal with an issue whereby my colour channels are every so slightly offset from one another. I was originally trying to fix this by Star Aligning the three channels without much success, however I discovered recently that using a little bit of noise reduction in the Star Alignment settings mostly solved the problem.
