Description

Guiding now fixed I was able to get around 20 great 300s lights and added the two best 600s lights from the last session. I really start to like AstropixelProcessor. Still have to get used to the UI and Workflow but the first results are stunning!

Description: Time for some more good weather... I am going nuts on my old subs.... However, the new brighter version had to much noise looking at the pic now in the evening, my display is not bright enough during the day to reveal the fine details so I often overdo it. This should now be a lot smoother with still a lot interstellar dust details. Let me know what you think. Best F-

Description: Tried to combine all 300s subs of the Iris I have taken. Due to the bad guiding with my Exos stars are not as round as I like to but that's probably the nicest version now.
