M66 M65

Hi, finally starting to get my mount working again and shot a night of Luminance on M66 and M65. After flats calibration I am getting a weird halo but I think I know whats causing it. Anyway here is M65 with M66 and 34x300sec exposures.

 

Cheers

Yes, very nice details indeed Paul. I expect that you used your Newton for this one. You can use curves, layer masks and the brush tool carefully to suppress that halo. I had a quick go at it on the posted jpg file but you could do it better on the original tif file.

Thanks Goran, nice job with the retouch.
