Final version with 1.45 hrs data added more on Oiii and Sii cahannels.
It looks like this object has less signals on above channels , or it may be the haze. Any way no point in spending more time on this Object.
Total duration-about 5 hrs
Pre -processing on Maxim DL 5.
Final integration with Photo Shop CS4 Clipping Mask method
Guiding- PHD2/GPUSB.
Imaging Camera-QSI 583 ws @ -10 deg Celcius
