Description

M78 with OSC. Not sure why I got those nasty vertical bands. Maybe Christmas Light interference (I forgot to turn them off on half of the exposures).

110 subs were taken on 12/24-25 of which 72 were selected based on quality.

Description: Not sure is this is an improvement or not. But I re-did my Bias and Dark subs (since the camera was returned to the factory for adjustment) which helped to remove the banding and gradient. Then I reprocessed the image. It appears that I got a lot of bayer matrix moire pattern that I tried my best to remove. Could have been caused by residual dew on the sensor as I had an issue with the cooler. I had thought the dew had dissipated completely but some might have remained. Oh well.
