1st half decent image with QHY268c

[Stuart1971]

So this is my second or third image with this camera, but first I wanted to show, Pac-Man Nebula, I want some constructive C&C, still trying to nail down the best gain setting, this was HGM and gain 0 offset 30, 3.5 hours of 5 min subs, under a very dewy moonlit sky, with Idas P2 LP filter, with Tak FSQ85 on EQ8 mount.

Stacked and calibrated in APP with darks, flats and dark flats, then moved to affinity photo for some tweaking

Still very noisy, but is it ok for just 3.5 hours….🤔🤔

comments please…but be nice…😂😂

 

this one was before a bit of star reduction in APP, as it’s a busy part of the sky…

Great result, is there a bit of red bias to the background?
