Description

Hi everybody.

I'm trying some new (for me) techniques in imaging.

This is a try under a very light polluted sky (my hometown), 18.60 mag/arcsec SQM.

I have done a live stack of 2880 frames, 10 seconds each, grouping 60 at a time (10 minutes each group), using a Newton 250 f/4 and a ZWO Asi294mc and no guide at all.

Neither flats nor darks.

8 hours of total exposing time over three nights (10-11-12/May/2020).

Processing such a picture was very challenging: without calibration frames I've fought against every kind of gradient you'd imagine.

Besides that, I think this is an interesting picture, considering the sky and the minimal gear and subexposure time used.

Hope you enjoy it.

Ciao
