Lot's learnt!

[Rustang]

Your here now so you may as well take a look! 😆

Its been a week long process this one with lots learnt. Having been mostly processing neb's recently, its been good to tackle a galaxy, it takes on some similar  and some more challenging set of processing techniques. I feel I'm at the point where I'm happy with the finished image, it is a very difficult target not to go over board with, hopefully I haven't done so with my final take with recent data.

4hrs worth of 5min subs with calibration frames. SW 80ED with 0.8 focal reducer and modified 600D. Stacked in APP and finished in PS.

Looks great @Rustang A noticeable improvement (to my eye) over your earlier versions.  From your stated goals, it looks like you cracked it!
