Hi Richard,
As I'm sure you have now found out the password has been updated.
I'd been particularly looking forward to your M51 submission on pier 1 and there has been some discussion about it with Manuel and Martin. Hope you are okay with the resubmitted jobs we put in.
Have you tried using the decent luminance subs to make a stack and removed the oval stars etc, I found this made a huge difference and reduced the noise in what I believe is called the plume. I'm hoping this shows up between version 1 and 2 I posted.
Hope all is well,
Ray
Thanks Ray. Yes downloading now. I just wasn't paying attention and missed the password change.
Saw the discussion on M51. Seems sensible to gather more data. Haven't got around to processing yet. Been under the cosh for a work deadline.
I have just started work on the Perseus Molecular Cloud. In the middle of batch processing first pane, but it is going to have to run overnight!
Anyway, next week or so should see more of the backlog dealt with. Did you see the first pass at M42 RGB I posted in the images 2022 thread? I have just downloaded the Ha and L, so once I have those processed we can see what the whole thing looks like.
