Horsehead Sequel

I gathered data from scratch. This time there was no moon, and I did this in an attempt to participate in the december challenge for tac-imaging mailing list. I think it worked out well. The processing worked good too. 20x3 min exposures totaling 2 hours. Equal number of darks. Flats were collected the next morning. Alignment and calibration in Maxim DL and final RGB composition in PS CS2. Another thing I realized while processing this is that the three AA plugins I had to split the exposures into LRGB were not all doing it the same way. One produced better RGB frames and one produced better L frames. I used both plugins. Deconvolution scripts used in Maxim DL to make the stars sharper. The color balance is probably also closer to reality although this is still a learning process for me.
