Description

First post to Astrobin, and 2nd image I've taken - had lousy flats and a lot of light pollution - processing has been a bear, but lots of help in the astro community for newbie's like myself. Very grateful.

Two nights of imaging,
- May 19:  73 LRGB subs, 2x2, 120 sec
- May 28: 76 LRGB subs, 2x2, 180 sec
(and was just luck that my imaging sessions crossed over the emergence of the supernova)

have to give a shout out to @Howard Trottier and @Rouz Astro for their help and support.
