After a few goes at processing a handful of subs, and the poor amount of clear nights, I finally started to get some data to process.

 

Here is NGC7000 

 

68 x 180s Ha

30 x 180s Sii

30 x 180s Oiii

 

 

I have a long way to go to balance the filters properly, and really need more subs, but I am pleased with the initial progress

Thanks, 

still very much trying to find my way with the right order of operations on post-processing. Like which actions need to be done in Linear state and which are best left to after stretching etc.

Nice image for a first attempt at photographing a deep sky object.
