Until at least next week this is where it will end up. LRGB 24:18:18:18. Hope to add more time, Ha, IR, etc.

Hi Chas,
That is looking better with color added! A bit of HA would really bring out the Hydrogen venting.

Great shot ! The addition of Ha channel would enhance it even further.

Charlie,
Its looking pretty good. I agree with others - it would be interesting to see the Ha data added.
