Description

Acquired using 11 observations over a period of about 18 months. Each observation is 5 minutes.

I worked on the image using MaxIM DL and Photoshop. Since there was so much data I was able to get a nice contrast between the dark and light areas of the image and was able to get lots of detail in the center.
