M81/M82 Processing

This is 30 subs, 10 darks, flats and bias.
Using PI and following "Harrysastroshed" beginners tutorials. How does this look??

Celestron Edge HD 8, Celestron f7 Reducer, Celestron AVX with Celestron Starsense, Guiding - Astro-Tech 60mm and QHY 5-ll C, Canon EOS 550D mod. with Astronomik CLS clip filter

looks good to me.

Excellent job! I would say the stars are a little over-exposed. I don't use PI so can't make a suggestion. You've got lovely detail there.

30 subs, but how long? I'd guess that they were fairly short since the bright parts are looking good but you have some way to go in getting the faint detail. Sometimes this is because the black point is clipped in processing but that doesn't seem to be the case here.

Nice result. Your image shows some of the dark dust lanes near the core. Great.

There seems to be slight vignetting in the lower corners. This can be taken care of by using DBE (division) in the linear stage.
