Description

Finally sat down to process a picture of Pleiades I took in December. I think it came out ok considering my location (Bortle 9) and the amount of tilt in the image (computer says around 40% ). I am hopefully getting to the end of my war on tilt which I decided to tackle. I made some changes to the rig which should help, time will tell. This could be stretched a little more to reveal some additional dust, but I like it this way, slightly toned down. The main goal was to get the stars right this time.
