Description

More is better. After acquiring an additional 121 subs from the other night, the Sunflower Galaxy suddenly appears with more definition. Amazing what a 180mm telephoto lens can yield!

The image has been resamples 2.5x.

Version "C" more than doubles the integrated time in version "B". Obviously more detail is extracted in my final version.

Decided too much HDRM Transform in version "C" so tried again to soften in version "D". TOO MANY CHOICES!!!!!
