Description

I am still trying to find the best settings for a perfect Andromeda photo. My last try was with fully open aperture f/2, this time I tried f/2.8. It is much easier to focus on the point, but I lose half of the light. Still, after only 20 minutes, this test came out great and I am looking forward to put a few hours into this amazing target!

Version C: New Processing from scratch with the goal to get more natural contrast and smaller stars.
