This looks great. What is the deep sky smudgelet up top? Did you post the luminance for this earlier?

Hi Eric, it's looking good. I think the red is a bit strong and the blue is a bit weak. (But heck I need to calibrate my monitor probably.)

Here it is with sharper detail overlaid from shorter duration exposures. This one drills down to the core.

Any good targets for bad seeing?

I've read many tutorials on LRGB which talk about blurring your binned color channels intentionally.... maybe mother nature can do that step for you?

Sure a bit soft but very clean. I have not heard of that camera before. The way I see it, I've got lots to learn still so I would still try under those conditions. What is the best use of softer nights, shooting colors 2x2?

The stars are pretty hard but holy cow does that image go deep or what. I didn't get to see the other version, where can I see that?

That thing is gorgeous I'd be tempted to mount it also..

The base on the AP3600 is almost a bit art deco like the Chrysler building.
