This is definitely a work in progress and a labour of determination, as I started this image in 2016 and have been struggling ever since to get some decent Luminance data and a slightly larger FOV. I took this once the Lion Nebula had reached the meridian.
Well I think I have some better Luminance finally merged from data done at Kelling and twice at Cairds, and all merged into one, will have to sit and work out how much data is in this combined Luminance.
The colour component is only around the actual nebula and I now have to get colour data for the rest of the image.

This is the original LRGB image, so you can see the size of the coloured area.

Another iteration of this target!
It's looking really good.

Thanks Mark. Hopefully l can get the larger fov colour at Kelling.
Still a WIP !!!!
NOT TO BE SHOWN AT MEETING
As stated I only managed to get 7 short exposures in colour at Kelling to fill in the larger FOV around NGC1333 due to lack of clear skies. 150secs binned 3 x Red, 2 x Green, 2 x Blue.
Very noisy due to insufficient data, this is certainly a labour of love.
