Description

Reprocessed all available lights I got.

Total of 130 ligths from a 60D and 700D shot this winter. Not the best quality because poor conditions, and because my lack of knowledge on AP that moment to already make better and longer exposures.

I processed all CR2 files with Adobe Raw manager first by removing the vignetting, noise, sharpen and lower the curves. Convert them all to 16bit TIFF and stacked them in DSS. Didn't used bias, flats, darks and dark flats

In photoshop I used NIK collection Color Expres 4 en Dfine2.

3 x 300

18 x 120

26 x 60

32 x 30

21 x 20

30 x 5

total exposure time is 1,7 hour. Used ISO between 200 and 3200
