IC 1396

[VikN46]

IC 1396 from last night, didn't quite go to plan and noisy and focus not great but being as it took me an age to get the part I wanted in a half decent position in frame I'm happy with what I did get.

Taken using my usual stuff:
SW 150 PDS, EQ5 Pro Synscan GOTO.
Guiding: SW ST80 and QHY5
Modded Canon 600D with CLS clip filter

Using: BYEOS, PHD, DSS, Photoshop CC.

15 x 300s lights (I had 30 programmed to be done but halfway through I think one of my cats decided to take a look at my computer and pressed something    )
10 x 300s darks
bias
flats ( although think these need to be better as image noisy)

I think I may have over done the processing but first time I have followed a tutorial but I did learn lots about PS.

Anyway here it is:
