bernard, I fell in love with your rendition of ngc2626 so I tried to give it go myself with some data on telescope.live from the CHI1 telescope. However, I don't get anywhere near the amount of detail you have in your version. In fact, I would say the data I downloaded looks really soft in comparison. Would you mind sharing which data you used from telescope.live for your image above?
I used the CMOS data from the CHI-1 telescope.
