This is not a subsequent imaging of the Globular cluster M3 but rather an improved processing of my original data now I am a little further down the StarTools' rabbit hole. This latest iteration shows much more colour and detail through better understanding/application of the COLOUR and SHARPEN modules in StarTools.

The original frames were taken on the 7th March 2016 and involved x50 thirty second light frames, x50 dark frame and x50 bias frames. Stacking was done in DSS and subsequent processing in StarTools. The equipment used was a SkyWatcher Startravel 102mm refractor on a Synscan alt-az mount and Canon 600D DSLR.
