Description

Sculptor was one of the targets I could not shoot from my backyard when I had the Edge 11. Not that it was at a pretty good height at the obs, barely cleared the walls at 25 degrees, but still attempted to shoot, plus the moon was out in full force too. 

I didn't add too much Ha onto the RGB as i felt it shifted the color balance when blended so just added a very tiny bit.

Hope you like this result. Clear skies!
