Well, the best I could do with the color subs I took.I used binned data and I was not completely happy with it. But it is not too bad I guess.
I hope to get the O-III and S-II subs this weekend. 8)

Looks good to me - not sure what you're not happy with. Can't wait for the other narrow bands.

Nicely done Floyd, lovely detail.
Indeed, everything has its Pros and Cons, and BINNING does too... (I'm not too fond of it myself)

Looking forward to your image with the new subs... keep it up! 8)
