Description

Due to poor weather here (we got like 3 exploitable nights in 4 months), this image is a combination of the light files from two years. Equipment hasn't very change between the two sessions, so why not use the small opening to enhance previous acquisitions.

In addition, I enhanced my processing skills since last year and new tools, so it's was a good occasion to revisit this target.

The Nikon D850 used to capture this image is stock (filtered).
