Hello all,
This is turning out to be some sort of benchmark image for me. As I keep learning new processing techniques, I keep returning to M 82 and reprocessing the data. This time I added some Ha to the mix. I'm heartened that at least it seems to be looking better each time. It's no fun taking backward steps.

ST10 on a 12" reflector @ f/9
L(HaR)GB: 50-(150-20)-20-25 minutes

Thanks for looking,

Wow, great detail. The "cigar wrapper" shows very well too!
