Two new images, Soul & IC63 was created by johnny5
I have not posted in a while, mostly for lack of anything to post However I did managed to collect some photons over the last few weeks. I was really desperate to finish IC63 which I had started earlier this year but unfortunately did not get the opportunity to finish it until just this week. I took the Soul Nebula a few weeks ago during a rare spell of clear nights. I am very happy with both images, particularly IC63, I didn't have much faith in the image as I was doing it and had to discard multiple nights of data due to various setbacks.
The Soul Nebula came together a lot easier, it could do with some more data, a good Lum layer maybe (both images are HaRGB) and probably being pushed so far in processing as it looks a little too contrasty but I am still very pleased.
Thanks for looking, comments, opinions and ideas are always welcome.

Thanks, not sure about teaching you anything, Id never assume to know enough about this craic
Yeah your right, I live out in west Galway, out past Spiddal. I have some very mild Light pollution to the east due to Galway but nothing major at all, my biggest problem is the weather and I have sat on many cloudy nights, seeing the rest of the country clear wondering what I'm still doing here.
I am considering moving back to Dublin early next year but the biggest thing that is stopping me is the light pollution. Its a trade off really and there's always narrow band imaging.
