M20 and 21 Trifid Nebula and Star Cluster

 

 

Added HA data to the RGB. I split the RGB channels then combined the HA and blue channel using mean (HA, blue) in pixel math and used that for lum, and the rgb frames for rgb, all weighted equal. LRGB combo was done with non linear images. Came out halfway decent. Note: the color version of this is not as scary as the HA lol.

 

16@ 300 seconds HA gain 111

 

15 @ 60 each RGB gain 50

 

not cooled! temps around 65F, my darks were taken on a different night at temps of 75F and actually worked better at calibrating out amp glow.
