Description

Trying something new... f/2 Rokinon 135mm with ASI533MC Pro. The target is the IFN around Bode's and Cigar Galaxies. I have never processed IFN before but I think this is a good start. There was a massive amount of noise so I did take it to Topaz Denoise at the end for the heaviest denoise I've ever tried (max remove noise on severe noise).

Description: Processed for the galaxies and dust separately. Denoised in Topaz and brought together in Affinity Photo. I like the dust to be brighter but I would like to hit some level of ethereal without it being super faint.
