Description

I encountered a lot of small problems, caused by lack of practice over the last 6-7 months. It took me a little time to find certain reflexes, and start to know my new equipment.

It was a test outing: under a Bortle 5 sky, during the week (and therefore with relatively little time to image, less than an hour), I did not hope to make the Top Pick of the day ;)

This is also the first LRGB processing that I have done in PixInsight. I'm not satisfied with the stars: my process needs to be improved to generate and process the stars image (I will definitely do a v2 in the coming days).

Title: NGC 4565 - Needle Galaxy (no crop)

Description: Inadvertently, v1 of this image was cropped to 50%, instead of being resized.

I no longer had the uncropped file, so I carried out a new process, almost identical to the first.
