Description

IC 1848 Soul Nebula.

The Optolong L-eXtreme did a pretty good job of letting me image under a full moon. There was some light pollution, but not too bad.

First time trying PixInsight to post-process. Basically used AstroPixelProcessor to do stacking, background extraction and stretching, then PixInsight and StarNet++ to remove and mask stars, then reduce star mask, adjust in PhotoShop to enhance nebula, then back into PixInsight to reintegrate smaller stars.
