I reprocessed the NGC7331 image which was presented earlier and added the "missing" Stephan's Quintet grouping that got inadvertently cropped out of the original.

 

I had to reprocess all the data from the beginning however that gave me an opportunity to act on some of the comments from the previous image. I toned down the colour saturation & hope this produces a better image.

 

I decided to present the entire frame encapsulating the Quintet but providing some breakouts to home in on potential regions of interest.

 

The full montage can be seen here for the pixel peepers https://www.astrobin.com/5fizo2/

 

Comments appreciated around the new attempt.

 

The total integration time with the added L which is not mentioned in the Astrobin stats is around 30 hours using the Altair 115 APO and the ASI6200 mono camera.

 

I wish you all clear skies.
