Description

The sky finally aligned with a night off for me to do some imaging.  This object has been on my to do list for a couple years, and I'm glad to finally capture it.  It's the first time I've used bin1 with this setup, and for whatever reason, I had some trouble with the flats.  This data was stacked using only darks and lights.  Some of the stars didn't align properly when stacking.  I suspect this was a slight spacing issue.

Description: I drizzled this 2x2 then resampled it back to the normal resolution after combining the SHO data. This seemed to work out much better.
