Another Leo Triplet

[rodrigol]

Here is my first Leo Triplet from a clear night on the 6-7th using an Esprit 120 w/ 0.77 FR and ASI071MC Pro. Integration was done on 30 x 200s lights and a library of calibration frames using PI. The JPG came out a bit noisy for some reason. I need to improve on my uploads to SGL! Feedback welcome 😅

Nice tight stars, and nice framing.  I agree with you about the "noise".  Does uploading as a .png file help?

Hi Chris, I'm going to try PNG here to check....I think it makes a difference but not quite like the masterlight xifs

It certainly does make a difference.  Quite noticeable.  There is still some noise from somewhere though.  I don't know if PI has a noise reduction feature which you can use selectively?   It does also seem to me that the noise has a definite green tinge.  These are highly critical comments, by the way, and aren't meant to detract from what is actually a fine image.
