NGC 7822 is a young star forming complex in Cepheus captured with a SX Trius 694 camera on a Takahashi 106 refractor.Taken recently 22x600s Ha exposures were added to an image using the Hubble palette taken earlier this year making a total exposure of about 7hrs.

Imaged in late January/Early February.
Processed in mostly PixInsight with a few light finishing touches in PS
and LR. Imaged at Austerfield with the society Takahashi and my ZWO ASI1600MM-Pro.
139 x 30s Lum, 47 x 120s Red, 60 x 90s Green, 62 x 90s Blue
~ 5.5 hours total integration
50 darks, 20 flat darks and 20 flats per filter.
Getting to grips with PixInsight has been tricky, but I am really happy with the results and going forwards the workflow should be more streamlined. I had a few false starts and had to go back to be the beginning due to finding significant colour fringing around the stars late on in the processing, which was corrected by moving the R and G alignment by a few pixels, although it is still not perfect. I think that the problem stems from my camera and/or filters not being totally inline with the telescope. Pixinsight has especially done a great job of getting rid of the complex gradients that I had in the light subs.
