Reprocessing of the Heart and Soul nebulae

Reprocessing of the Heart and Soul nebulae, taken with a Canon 1300D DSLR camera with a Rokinon 135mm prime lens. The camera was mounted on a Skywatcher EQ5 GOTO Mount. Settings were 45s exposure and 1600 ISO. I captured 180 light frames, 30 dark frames, 30 flat frames, and 30 dark-flats. All were stacked in DSS and processed in GraXpert, StarNet ++ and finished off in Gimp 2.10.  An intervalometer was used to control the camera and a Bahtinov mask to focus on a bright star.
