Description

Re-edit of all my data on the Pac-Man Nebula. I discarded the worst 20% of the subs. Editing was done in AstroPixelProcessor for stacking, PixInsight for decon, denoise and stretching. Final composition was done in AffinityPhoto with the help of StarNet++ to seperate stars and nebula.

The final result is much better than my previous edits (shown in Revision B and C).

Odd star shape comes from the fact that I actuially shot this though my kitchen window glass last winter. Tjose were just my test shots to learn my equipment at that time.
