M17 The Swan

[HunterHarling]

I managed to get a bit of exposure in between sunset and moonrise, so I decided to image M17. This image is only 2.4 hours of exposure and a 'rough' process of M17, but I'm happy with it as it's the first time I've imaged the Swan Nebula. No lum data yet...

ASI1600mm

FSQ106

Atlas Pro AZ-EQG

ZWO RGB: 180sx16 each, 2.4 hours total.

There seemed to be a large amount of green in/near the center. I'm not sure if the green is accurate...

Questions/comments always welcome.

Here's with some green subtracted...

Another one on my to do list as I have about an 80min gap in the trees when I can get onto these lower targets. I don't expect my 40D Canon will get anywhere near the quality of this superb shot.
