My first light with the ASI294MC Pro. Spent some time getting APT setup for the camera and understanding some parameters and getting the cooling working. I really liked using the Live View since I could actually see the sky vs using the DSLR which only the brightest of stars would show. This allowed me to center targets easier and to do my focusing. Plate-solving worked very well for syncing Stellarium. Although I do like Cartes du Ciel better since you can click any part of the sky and have the mount move there. So doing minor adjustments is easier. I took 20 images of the the Pelican Nebula before moving on to the Soul Nebula as I wanted to test the camera on different targets. The next day I proceeded to take the darks but I took them while I was outside and the camera was in the daylight so I think there was light bleeding into the camera. So the next day I put the camera into a dark place and retook my darks and it seemed to help with the amp glow. All together I took 45 darks but will add more later. After stacking, I did some preliminary processing in SiriL using this tutorial. I continued my processing in PS and the below is the outcome.
I exported a tif and used StarNet++ to remove the stars so I could further process the nebula without affecting the the color of the stars. I use the stand-along version of StarNet++ and followed these instructions. Below is the starless version after removing all the stars.
This is the annotated version from Astrometry.net.
