Happy Thanksgiving!

Awesome narrowband, really brings out the fluff and detail. I haven't done any processing at all , pain is off the chart. Keep up the good work.

Yes Sir. All the filters, actually.
Not sure what I'll get out of them, but heck, it's easy to click them all on in NINA, and let it do its thing.
I have the Pegasus Flats Master I use for the flats wizard in NINA.
Since I don't know any better, I shoot the whole 9 yards.
I've even taken a step back and use the scope cover to take the darks, and dark flats.

Since everything is cooled and at it's "Normal", I try to get it all just to have it available.
I err towards the too much side. LOL!

I was watching a GraXpert video and thought I'd take a side trip with a processed file. I was impressed with it for a first time fly by.

Sorry to hear that Ronnie. No fun being in pain my Friend.
Can't keep up the work right now. Clouds.
Plus being a nurse for my wife who had Back Surgery. So looking after her comforts as needed.

Brian did some processing of files from this ASI 1600MM and he said he didn't think I needed a flattener for the telescope. I would have blindly gotten one back when, but they were on back order. So I figured just try it without.
I don't see any vignetting I'm worried over. And I crop away any stacking artifacts anyhow. Or excess background.
I got a couple for my 80mm telescope but alas, saw no improvement at the time.

Suppose to get some clearing here. Keeping my fingers crossed.
