Description

NGC 1851 globular cluster. The image was obtained from two scopes and the capture was more than one month apart.
One scope was the Vixen ED80 and the other one the Askar FRA600.
The cluster itself was interesting in my collection of the Sausage clusters but now I was interested in doing composition of images, so more than one scope can be pointing to the same target. I know that some people have several scopes in the same mounting gear, but in my case it was a test, using the same pier but the two equipment on different nights. Maybe in the future I could have more than one scope on the same mount (future=$$$$ hahaha)

So training with PixelMath and so on.
No star reduction and mild noise reduction using ATWT transformation.

In the combined image, more galaxies can be identified, almost all the ones from plate solving, the cluster is located in a field of galaxies. I left the image taken with one scope for comparison. I did try the stretch more or less to the same values in both cases.
