This is a reprocess of the IC 434, AKA the famous Horsehead nebula in Orion. This was taken last November over 3 or nights. I had just downloaded Siril a few months prior, and hadn't really learned how to use it properly. I've since gotten the newer version with Starnet integrated and it really makes a difference. The image consists of 550x90s subs taken with my Vixen ED81S and my old Orion .8x reducer and my Antlia Tri-band filter. Processed with DSS, SIril and Photoshop CS4. It's not quite what I would call "magazine quality," but I'm getting closer I thinksmile.gif Thanks for looking and clear skies.
