I shot 10 minutes each of LRGB last week and got to reduce and at least start to process it yesterday. These stars were only ~3.8", but that is better than I thought the seeing was going to give me. I have some more subs from longer ago, and took some more last night that should help with depth. I will have to see which ones will work with this set. One of these nights will show up with good seeing at a time when I can get some sharper luminance. Late last night was pretty good. A big down side of Alt Az is I can't shoot at zenith, so when the seeing was getting better last night I couldn't point here, so I was back looking at NGC3628 again.
Thanks for looking and suggestions always welcome.
