Description

This was one of the most hard processing in my astro-photographic life.

The image is part of my Messier at Home (M@H) project: taking all the Messier catalog object from an urban light pollutes sky.
My average SQM is 18.6 and living near a big city I have huge variable gradients.

Moreover this shot was taken under bad sky conditions: High humidity, low atmospheric transparency made the starting image extremely complicated to manage.

Only thanks to careful processing have I managed to get something decent from these starting data.

Image B shows the starting point of this work.
