M51 The Whirlpool Galaxy 21.04.18

My first proper attempt at RGB imaging with the monochrome CCD

Imaged using William Optics FLT-110 and Atik 314L monochrome camera.

10 x 300 seconds R, 10 x 300 seconds G, 2 x 300 seconds B (as I had to delete the other 8 due to technical issues).

10 x 300 seconds Luminence.

I will have another look at this data once I have done more reading up on combining my Luminence data with the RGB data as it was a case of having a play around this morning.

However, I'm very happy with my result for now.
