I've spent a few days playing around with StarTools (thanks @almcl! Oh and Ivo of course for creating such an awesome program) and managed to get out last night. Did my flats properly (thanks @tooth_dr!) and managed to produce this off of 90min on NGC7000.
Needless to say I'm chuffed with the result, thank you everyone for your input 😁

Wow thank you! I will look into improving the flats. I'm currently using a t-shirt and a bright light, any tips?
Also would you mind telling me what processing steps you followed? I find myself struggling when it comes to colour and you've done a nice job there

I've been having another crack at DSO imaging lately, and I've managed to produce this from 6 hours of integration:
I'm quite pleased with it but I'm very new to image processing, so I'd be incredibly grateful if someone wouldn't mind having a go at processing my data!
Image Info:
- Lights: 46x4min + 66x3min
- Stacked with Dark, Flat and Bias frames
- Stacked in DSS and processed in GIMP
- Taken under Bortle 7/8 skies
Gear:
- SkyWatcher ED80
- 0.85x Reducer
- Astro-Modified EOS 600D
- ZWO ASI 120MM Mini Guide Camera with 9x50 Finderscope
- HEQ5 Pro Mount
There's some dust bunnies and other artefacts on the image that I know I could spend more time removing, however I'm wondering if I'm doing my data justice in processing!
Thanks, Tom
