You got some lovely detail in there Gordon! The resolution might possbily be a bit too high for the real 1:1 data content. Binning could potentially let you push decon a bit further, bringing out the central star (the 'giant' white dwarf). I personally love seeing it in this object as it puts what ...

Gorgeous image, gminder! I was really hit and miss with DSS until I recently got a Baader mod on my 450D.

Has a zip of a single light frame, and all the light frames.

Ivo,

Found the raws...will upload a zip tomorrow...upgrading our connection going to wait till I have some bandwidth

Ok... any sort of calibration in DSS will also significantly affect how much detail can be extracted, how well noise levels can be determined and typically causes clipping and bloating of stars (as is quite apparent here). I don't really understand this statement...since this has never been an issu...
