Description

It has taken me awhile to get this data processed. Stopped after I had some issues with blurXterminator making some of the shadows too dark. The most recent update to it fixed these problems, so I decided to "complete" the image. I am not completely satisfied with the color, but it pretty close to what I was going for.

This is a total integration of 51.75 hrs over 8 different nights.
