Description

This was data that I had captured in June 2021, and I have been reworking that data over, and over, and over again to get a result I think would be worth posting.

Drum roll...

So this is the FIFTH time I have processed this using every little trick I have learned to try to bring out the finer details of the fainter portions of the galaxy without washing everything else out or making it appear over-processed.
