We're suffering record poor weather here in the UK and skies have been mostly cloudy for the past 2-1/2 months. Just 3 clear nights in that period that I can recall and I used them all. As a result I still have many outstanding targets which are incomplete or not even started. This post represents the progress I've made in that time, all data was processed using StarTools v1.4b with the exception of combining channels to create an HST palette for which I find Annie's Actions in PhotoShop quick and convenient. For narrow-band images I always process each channel separately _then_ combine the result, this because each channel needs individual attention for noise and stretch etc. My usual process is to perform an initial stretch, crop (if needed), wipe (again, if needed), stretch, deconvolution, sharpen, sometimes HDR if I have bright uncontrolled highlights, then finally de-noise. I may use 'Magic' to shrink the stars by 1pxl if I want to promote the nebula rather than a surrounding dense starfield, otherwise I leave it as it is. So nothing complex needed - which is the best option if your data can stand on it's feet!
All images captured using my NP127is refractor plus Moravian G4-16000 camera, unguided on a 10-Micron GM2000HPS mount. Exposure times are either 20 or 30mins, I try for at least 10 subs per channel but clouds usually deny the best laid plans!

Thanks as always to Ivo for making the best post-processing program available to us in the form of StarTools!
