Nice! You waited NINE YEARS to process that? What's THAT story?

It's just taken me a bit of time to get round to learning how to process narrowband images.
Have gone through my old data of 2013-2017, before getting stuck into more recent projects.

I have approx 30 images to process from 2023 onwards

Nine yeard? Now that's what I call a labour of love! Very nice pic! You definitely have my seal of approval..."Stop barking already! I'll give you a fish".LOL!

 

Clear skies and keep looking up!
