Description

It seems like I only test or do quick images as I continue to experience bad conditions for AP- going on 6 months with no end in sight of the hot, humid weather.  Mid-October in Central Florida and the clouds along with high humidity and heat has us gridlocked in mid-August weather.    Despite this, I actually found an hour to try my new ASI6200MM on my C11" EdgeHD @f/7.  

Seeing was ok but humidity bounced around 94-98% with intermingling clouds.   Frankly, I considered this to be the best conditions I have seen in 6 months except for another 45 minutes in July when I imaged the Eagle Nebula.   

What I learned with this camera is similar to what others are/have experienced.  Processing takes longer but I have an excellent computer.   To that point, I found APP to process the 1 hour of lights (along with the darks, flats and dark lights) at twice the speed of PI WBPP. and with a better result.  I have a slight tilt but I am going to live with it. 

If I get lucky in the coming days or weeks, I hope to create a Hubble Palette of this beautiful nebula.

Description: I tried pulling a little more nebulosity out and getting more clarity but only so much you can do with only 1-hr data under less than ideal conditions.
