Description

Telescope Live data: SPA2CMOS, Officina Stellare ProRC 700, QHY 600M
Subs: 54X120''*(L+R+G+B). No calibration frames.
NGC7380 is definitely one of my favorites. One can clearly see a wizard with a Merlin-ish hat, as if saying: 'Without my staff I can't help you sir, I'm sorry'. I suspect that the dithering process was not performed for this set of subs (or, it was done only a few times, between every dozen subs for instance), as the 'walking noise' is noticeable in the stacked image. Still, it's good material and fun to process.
