Hello everyone,
This is the first photo I processed completely in Pixinsight from data reduction to post processing. Only the finishing touches are made with CS5. This is also the first photo I am posting here.
I am working on this since the other day and I am not able to judge it anymore. I am not completely happy with it but I need a break now
I need to work on noise reduction and maybe I will re-process it from stacking onwards.
I guess my focus was not dead on during the exposures. I also see elongated stars in the corners. Anyways, here it is:
