Spent a week at Summer Star Party. Lots of rain but enough clear skies to get this.

Scope: C9.25 at F/10
Camera: STF-8300 using Optec Filter wheel and Astrodon 50 mm LRGB filters. 2x2 binning

Not enough nights to get the luminance. Created false luminance out of RGB.

10 minute x 10 RGB over 2 nights.

Used CCDStack and Photoshop.

Credit to Adam Block for the tremendous image processing lesson videos.

Some astronomers see things that were never really there and say it's AVERTED VISION.
