M27 Dumbell - One Shot Colour

[Coco]

Hi earthlings..

Apart from messing about with the Tal 100RS 2 months ago its been 4-5 months since I imaged something..

This was taken between the clouds last Thursday with my new APM 107 APO and the one shot colour ATIK 428

24 x 5 minute exposures ( 2 hours only )

Stacked in AstroArt and part processed in Pixinsight and PS..

Thanks for looking..

Great ... will re visit the TIFF file later

If you can work in 16 bit, then add a touch of saturation you'll save a lot more detail than working on 8 bit jpgs
