Hi all!
Well, this weekend I got some good skies and a chance to try Binning for the first time. Took two shots, M20 and M8 and got a chance to process the data.
Here are the two images in full res and size, please be sure to click on the picture to see the full res and size.

All Color Subs Binned 2x2
R = 6min x 8
G = 6min x 8
B = 6min x 8
L = 8min x 13 (Not Binned )

M20
