M33 First Attempt at LLRGB

[Grimbles]

Hi Everyone

As a follow up to my previous 'M33 data comparison' post

I added another 3 hours of data to that in my previous post, so almost 7.5hours total, but was still struggling with processing.  I decided to follow Scott Rosen's (Astronomers do it in the Dark website) video tutorial on LLRGB DSLR processing which is really very good.  After a couple of hours ended up with the image below,  I am happy with the noise reduction, but I think I lost a bit of detail somewhere along the way, also the colour balance is not quite right but overall very pleased with this and most importantly learned loads along the way.

Any further advice etc would be useful. I think with the forecast for the next few weeks practicing processing is going to be the priority.

Looks great. My experience with tutorials is that you usually have to go through them a few times to really understand and get confident with the process.

Thanks for sharing
