Hi,
I finally got some color data for the luminance I shot on this a few weeks back.The skies were clear but seeing was not very good.I spent a lot of time playing with guider settings trying to get round stars,never got it just right.
I had planned on 1 hour RGB but ended up with only 32 minutes each,learned a bunch about guiding though grin

Here are the details
Tec 140 at F7 ST-2000xm
L-600sx12 RGB-480sx4 each bin 1x1
Darks,flats,alignment and stacking in Images Plus
Combined in Photoshop as LLRGB
I had to crop a bit off the edges due to not getting the shot framed just right compared to the luminance image.

Thanks for looking,

Jason

Looking good, Jason! Is that a little far-away galaxy in the lower left corner?
