Description

Very excited to see this one for the first time! Happy with my first attempt, overall, but really want to reshoot + reframe this. I didn't realize just how much nebulosity extended up and away from the horse head area, missed a lot of that with my framing. The L-eXtreme star halos are pretty frustrating. Hopefully I can blend away the halos if I add some L-pro subs and blend it in.
