Hi all, 

It's been a loooonnnnngggg time since I last posted, but with current circumstances, I've had a bit of time on my hands. Few tweaks to the observatory here and there. And, this week feels like the first clear sky week in Manchester for years 😛

Here is my first (publishable) attempt at the Leo triplet, 24 x 300sec, LRGB, (9xL, 5xRGB)... bang on 2 hours.

All pixinsight. Batch preprocessing script, ABE, SCNR, Channel combination, quick HistogramTransformation. Then added L.

I usually LinearFit my images but with this target, everything had a super strong red cast, so this is without. Colours look more balanced in this.

It only just fits in the frame, but I'm sure theres more I could pull out of it.

Thoughts?

Hope everyone is well.

Joe
