M101 - Pinwheel Galaxy
2nd and possibly final colour version of M101. This image contains all the data from my previous process plus, another 2.5 hours of luminance shot with the IDAS light pollution filter in place. The IDAS makes a huge improvement in my LRGB subs and I would recommend trying one if you have urban light pollution like myself.
Imaging times;
Luminance 7.5 hours in 5 minute subs
RGB - 4.5 hours (total) in 5 minute subs
Total imaging time 12 hours.
Imaged with an Altair Astro 6" RC & Atik 314l+ processed in Pixinsight & CS5.
