I actually imaged this the night before I imaged the Lagoon last week. I had previously imaged M20 with a tri-band filter, which did it's job. Unfortunately it also kind of muted the reflection nebula a tad. I tried again with just a UV/IR cut filter. I must have been living right because my neighbors super sensitive motion sensor porch light didn't turn on once. I lost about an hour of imaging time due to user error, but thankfully the triffid is relatively bright. As such I don't think this image is too bad given the amount of acquisition time. The image consists of 220x60s subs. Processing was done with DSS, Graxpert, Siril and Photoshop CS4. The gear used was my Vixen ED81S, Vixen .67 reducer and ASI174MC-Cool.
As usual thanks for the views and clear skies fellow space nuts
