45 Hrs on Helix Nebula

45 hours of data (15 hrs per each channel) acquired during late August and first days of September, from my new backyard observatory.

I carried out the data reduction, deconvolution, and linear noise reduction, while Diego Gravinese did a wonderful job on the post-processing.
