Description

Shot this through periods of haze. Despite Moon and clouds (and heavy culling of data) the result turned out decent enough.

PreProcessing:
 - Darks, Flats, Flat Darks calibration
 - Subframe Weighing (mostly on numbers of visible stars)
 - Star Align, Batch StarX
 - Comet Align on Starless
 - Comet integration
 - Comet subtraction from SA
 - Star/Background Integration

Housekeeping:
 - Crop
 - DBE

 - Rista TGVD, MMT
 - ASH + GHS
 - Rista ACDNR

Starfield processing:
 - ImageSolver + SPCC (RGB)
 - BlurX
 - StarX > CloneStamp Comet remnant
 - Rista TGVD, MMT
 - Star Screen blenbed back in
 - ASH
 - Rista ACDNR/MMT
 - PM Screenblend Comet into starfield
