M33: taro_LRGB_pi_flow_100pct
Local group companion M33 captured from Tierra Del Sol with a big RC scope and big (4k x 4K) CCD camera.
LRGB data captured with the DSI 14 RC scope donated by Terry Arnold (family) who was a great and generous astro imager and astronomer. Terry freely shared his knowledge and enthusiasm for the difficult process of high quality astro imaging. I was lucky enough to attend a few of the astro imagers interest group meetings with Terry few years ago. He accomplished amazing narrow-band imaging from San Diego city area.
Thanks to those who skillfully setup the image collection and shared it with the SDAA group. This was a nice set of data to work with.
This was started with pre calibrated L,R,G,B integrated frames. There seemed to be a good bit longer integration time on the G data so I combined as R+0.8G+B. That appeared to result in a better color balance.
There was Ha data available, chose not to use it as the Halpha regions show well already.
