Description

The well known Andromeda galaxy, pictured under a Bortle class 5 sky. Stacking in DSS, stretch in Photoshop, and final contrast adjustment in RAW Therapee. The details show up nicely, but there is some noise on the arms of the galaxy although calibration was performed with Darks+Bias+Flats. Any comments and discussion more than welcome !
