DSI Pro II behind homebuilt 6" f1.8 astrograph

Description

These two images were taken 3hours 21 min appart. Each image was a stack of 20 frames @ 15sec. Processing efforts were directed on the central nucleus and jets. Color data consists of 30sec each blue, green and H-alpha. The 3D effect should appear as if the comet is lifting off the plane of the page if the opposite is happening try flipping the image horizontaly, you may be left eyed.
