Can't decide if this is a WIP or a finished image..
Either way, i've been gathering little bits of data here and there - it's 80x3m subs on Barnard 150 and the Fireworks galaxy!
Not something I'd usually tackle given how hard dark nebula is to catch from my location, but all the same I was pleased to see this coming up so well in a relatively short time!

The Wizard Nebula in S/H/O Narrowband
Taken during the past few live-streamed astro sessions, the data was captured from bortle 7 skies with an Askar SQA106 and a QHY Minicam8 (585m)
Data processed in PixInsight using the Hubble palette

M16, the Pillars of Creation
I've always wanted to capture a nice shot of these beautiful pillars and I finally feel like I have now - it's only a short data set as my time on target is incredibly limited for this object which is so low on the horizon for me, none the less - it turned out amazingly well I think.

NGC 3718 - OSC
Lately I've been having fun capturing galaxies with a superfast rig with a limited focal length, at only 544mm F/L this kind of target poses a challenge!
Shown here at native pixel scale, no drizzle.

The best shot of the Horsehead and Flame that I've ever taken!
Data captured during recent live-streams on YouTube
164x2m subs with the HyperStar11v4 for EdgeHD11, Poseidon-C Pro camera cooled to -5c, no filtration other than the standard uv/ir cut, and all from Bortle 7 skies!
(image should be mirrored, but to be honest - I forgot to do it!)

A quick 15 minute process of some M33 Triangulum Galaxy OSC data gathered from home here under B7 skies!
YouTube video to follow soon, feel free to download the data when the video releases and try for yourself! If you'd like to take part in a future critique video then please tag me and use the hashtag #triangulumtroubles in your post so I can find it! :-)

How good are your processing skills? Try my #hubblebubblechallenge !!
Using my own amateur captured data I decided to try and process just like the Hubble Space Telescope!
Want to try for yourself?
Video coming this weekend on my YouTube channel!
