Another reprocess.

Was never happy with the original and it still looks disappointing to me, but having looked around other images, I guess it is fairly comparable, so must just be one of those targets, but prefer this result to the first one I did.  Actually only just noticed this was only 1 hour's data so am probably expecting too much.

Taken during a first quarter Moon a year ago. 
29-10-2017
Two nights data were taken but could only use one night due to poor quality of 2nd night for some reason.

So only:
Ha 4 x 600
OIII & Siii (Each) 4 x 150secs binned
Total 1 hour

Really good Carole
Is it SHO palette?  That's amazing for 1 hour's data - just shows what you can do with binning.
Is that the Bubble Nebula in the bottom left?
A very pleasing result.

Swapped telescopes for armchair.

Carole

Thanks Noel, yes Hubble Palette (SHO).  Binning certainly helps with the colour element and yes that's the Bubble Nebula bottom left corner.

Wondeful mix of colours, especially for length of data, cant wait to get my Ha filter, 365astronomy has a baader one 7nm which is probably go for.
