Needs more S2 & O3

Do the clicky dance for full res.

Now that is lovely, great capture.

Beautiful. Are those very faint red rings on some of the brighter stars deconvolution artefacts? I have been trying to understand what that is and what it does, thus far I have only managed to get modern art out of that feature in pixinsight. There are some useful looking articles online but I dont have the brain capacity to read them at the moment!

Looks like you have it mastered with that though. congratulations

Thanks Ed

The stars were from the RGB set and I did not use the decon on them , to be honest I have no idea what caused the rings but tried to contain them.

If I get the chance to get more O3 & S2 it will have another fresh process.

Great image. More OIII and SII would be great.

I captured 20 hours in OSC on this a few years ago with surprising results as it's quite faint. 15 minute exposures.

Look forward to see it once you have more data.
