ngc1499 California Neb bi-colour

[ChrisLX200]

This is a bi-colour image using Ha and SII, I'm not sure OIII is going to add much after capturing a single 30min sub but I dare say I will collect the rest. Anyway, I have generated a bi-colour image using the data I have, the data being a bit sparse really and thus the result is more noisy than I would like. Nice and dark last night but the 'seeing' was poor - not that it will a huge difference at this pixel scale...
