Description

This is my first guided image ever. It's a start. Image is a little grainy. No flat fields or biases were taken. I didn't even take any darks. It's the raw image with some basic processing using Nebulosity and some manual removal of bad pixels (I'll eventually do it the correct way). My polar alignment wasn't that good, but I'm still learning that process as well. Could probably also have benefited from longer exposures or some additional stacks. This one takes a lot of time to absorb the photons.
