18th June Quick process from this morning

Post by Stardust5858 »

Hi all, in the midst of DIY managed to capture and do a quick process with CaK between the clouds. 100mm AR stopped down to 80mm and Zwo asi 178mm camera. Clouds didn't permit any other wavelength capture.

Thanks Terry, I used the computer in the obsy to process which is so much faster than my ancient laptop. Think I might be processing my images in future in the obsy, lol.
