NGC6050 and friends - round 2

Three minute subs LRGB total 165:36:33:36 over four nights. (Including the one night the dog really tried to show that skunk who was boss - and then had to ride in the same vehicle with me for 18 minutes back home!)

I would like to take longer subs, but there is a periodic error quirk that I need to track down one of these weeks. It may be a tooth on the belt? This way I don't have to throw out as many.

I usually try not to change the color too much after initial calculations, but I may go back and tweak this one. Any thoughts?

Thanks for looking.

Charlie
