Description

I was looking for a nice rich starfield to help with tweaking the spacing between my reducer and sensor after taking out the worst of the tilt - this region seemed to fit the bill. I collected LRGB with relatively short subs to minimize any minor polar alignment effect and 1x1 for RGB as well for better pixel peeping. I framed it with M11 and some dark nebulae in there to make it look a bit more interesting....
Not quite there yet with the spacing - add another 0.5mm and try again later.....
That being said the data isn't exactly terrible so I decided to process it as it's not a style of image I've tried very often.
