Last California of the year

Hello everybody,

Sometimes looking across this section of the forum, I feel a little intimidated to post anything here, as I feel unworthy to put my images amongst a lot of them I see on here. However I should put on my big boy trousers and stray away from posting in the beginners forum all the time, although I still am very much a beginner. Lets see how this is recieved anyhow, constructive criticism always welcome.

5 hours on NGC1499 @150 second exposures. 30 of each Flats and Bias

50% moon (ish)

600D

Samyang 135mm @F2.8

Skyguider Pro

L-Enhance Filter

Processed in Siril, Star reduction in Startools and noise reduction in Gimp as StarTools was playing up when trying to apply noise reduction there.

Cheers

Grant

No need to be intimidated, thats a good image, you have got lots of the faint gas emanating from the main body.

Thank you I do like it when you see the 'cirrus' areas of the nebula, give it that look of drifting through space.
