UPDATE FROM MABULA
I have had a very rough 2 months unfortunately health wise. I was struck 3x in a row with bacterial infections. The second infection occurred  after a routine hospital checkup and I became very sick. I had to rest and take a lot of antibiotics. Once I was recovering and restarting work 1 month ago, I again became sick. The infection was not yet gone, so even more antibiotics and rest was needed. Needless to say, it took a lot of my energy and I needed a lot of rest.
Finally, the infection is really gone and my energy is coming back step-by-step now and I have started work again. I am terribly sorry to have kept you waiting for support. I will address all outstanding questions and e-mails step-by step and will be on the forum daily from today.
APP 2.0.0-beta47 will come soon as well, a lot of work was already completed before I became very ill, so the release is also nearly ready for you. Beta47 will be much faster actually. Many workflows will be more than 2x faster, mosaics can even be 10x faster than before because registration really received a major boost... all compared to beta46. Â Before I release it, I will make sure that everything is working properly and then I will release it.
- Hi all,
This is my result from my extreem light polluted backyard.
It is all caputers with an OSC cam (zwo 071 mc-pro) with several filters like:
Idas LPS-D1
Idas NB1
Baader HA 7nm.
Â
All de processing done in APP (including blending HA to RGB stack) and a few tweaks in Photoshop.
Â
Hope you enjoy.

Hoi Jan-Willem,
That is a stunning image. Well done! One tiny point of improvement would be to shoot more blue since the reflection nebula in M20 is a bit faint but that’s really negligible. Really, really nice image!!!
By the way, the open cluster is M23, not M22 đŸ˜‰

Hi Wouter,
Â
Thanx for you're kind words đŸ™‚ !
Yes I would like to improve the blue reflection nebula but I use an OSC cam so my exposures ar not long enough to collect proper data on the blue nebula. Maybe when I go to a darker side I can collect better data.
Â
Thanx for pointing me in the typo, but the m21 is correct for the open cluster, the m22 should be m20 (trifeld nebula) so I edit this post. (Later I will edit the text on the photo đŸ˜‰ ).

Hi Jan-Willem,
Oops yes the cluster is M21. My bad!
