Description

The Tarantula Nebula, tbh I didn't remember that this nebula was located here, my main intention was to take a snap of the Large Magellanic Cloud and the Asiair centered around the Tarantula, so a lucky shot I guess.

This time I went for 600 secs subs, it got cloudy after sub 21 which is a bummer but I managed to get a decent integration time. 600 secs subs is the far I can go with my current setup and skills, PA is still a pain, next time I will do my first try with a mono camera.

The L-eXtreme filter does wonders for light polluted areas, but even with that you can still feel it contaminating the shots.

In terms of processing, I'm using the AutoIntegrate script, and now I added BlurXterminator and NoiseXterminator.
