hi all this has taken quite a while to get.

HA   -   9 hours at 900 sec each

OIII - 4.5 hours at 900 sec each

S2   -   4 hours at 900 sec each

rgb  -   2 hours at 120 sec and 180 sec each channel 

total 23.5 hours

Skywatcher 200 pds - Atik 383l Baader filters (NB & RGB) - skywatcher az eq6 gt - guided with a finder/guider.

it has taken over 9 weeks to collect the data for this object last subs 6/11/2015

this image is now finished as far as i am concerned i am very pleased with this now  especially with the Light pollution around where i am.

thanks for looking and all cc welcome.

Looks Great Chris,

I have an hours worth of 10 min subs on this target in each of the NB channels.

Needs much more data though as I am struggling to pull the OIII out without it being too noisy.

thanks Sarge.

the more OIII you get the less noise you will have but you can use a little bit of noise reduction on the OIII and the S2 without losing detail
