Description

First light of the TecnoSky 130 APO triplet, with a Canon 5D w/ Baader filter. Exposure time 4 hrs. SQM 21,3, good seeing, average humidity. Italian Appennini.

"B" version is the same image, re-processed one year later. The final version was processed by Edoardo Radice using PixInsight. Holy cow, how much data was hidden in my frames!

Please note the stray rays from Deneb. Edoardo left them there for two reson because removing them would require to much work, and the need to use painting tools.
