I took this at New Years but only just finished processing it.

Main scope was an FSQ106Ed with reducer and FLI Proline 16803 camera.

But there are elements of AP140 and TEC180 images blended in.

This has been my most challenging processing to date.

Superb image Greg. Congratulations
Do you get a lot of vignetting with the FSQ+Reducer+16803? Did you have to crop or are the corners still usable?
Thank you for posting
