Description

Here is the final (for now) result of a couple of nights worth of imaging sessions. My first stack had some strange artifacts that I was finally able to trace back to bad flats. A few more attempts at stacking would tax DSS for a couple of hours before DSS gave up and quit. After changing a couple of settings of DSS, I was finally able to get a file that I could work with in Photoshop. I never figured out the issue with my flats, so I used an artificial flat.
