Description

One of my first shots, M42, with a Sony NEX6 mirrorless(APS-C format) and simple data processing with MAXIMDL (not even noise treatment), but properly calibrated. Back to those times, it was rather rewarding, I had to spend all the night taking frames commanding the camera with a timer (no computer interface for Sony NEX6), while today I leave it to SGP.

I may come back to this shot and try and improve it with PI processing sometime in the future.
