This was taken with a Lumenera Skynyx 2.0m, Televue 5x barlow, and an SBIG CFW on the CDK12.5.  2000 frames were taken at 60fps in IR-exclude, red, green, blue, and IR-only channels.  About 900 frames each from IR-exclude, IR, green, and blue were stacked and sharpened with registax to make an LRGB image.  LRGB composition and leveling was done in photoshop, as well as some additional sharpening on the L channel.
