I don't do Galaxies as a rule because I'm rubbish at them. However this came out amazingly well.
Very nice clean data. Great registration of each of the LRGB subs.
It can take a lot of tweaking with the colours and not loose definition.
This is through Pixinsight Ripley with RC tools Blur and Noise. A touch of Histogram transformation and that was it.
I've also run this through my Pixinsight Lockhart build and it's just as nice.
This is more on the Blue side as I wanted the barred spiral to stand out a little more.
