On August 10th David Young allowed me to come down to Powell and learn how things worked down there. I was also able to collect some data on NGC 5907 AKA the Splinter Galaxy. But I didn't have a thumb drive on me that night. So the next public night I went down to download my data. Doug Miller, one of the volunteers who taught me on the 10th was there, and he allowed me to not only download my data, but the rest of the data we captured that night.
I absolutely love processing data, so I graciously accepted.
One more thing to note, we did not use the standard ZWO ASI071MC Pro. We were experiencing some issues with it. There was a weird gradient on the top and bottom of the frame. Luckily someone brought a ZWO ASI2600MC Pro and it performed much better.
So here's what I managed to do. From left to right we have the image I took, the Splinter Galaxy (7 min, 40 sec), then the famous pillars of creation in M16 (4 min, 40 sec), and finally the Trifid Nebula (4 min)

Those look great Russell! Thanks for sharing your work!
That ZWO ASI2600MC Pro was David McCallie's personal camera. It's pretty amazing! I hope we can make one a permanent fixture for the 30" as well someday.
