Description

I just had to try and capture this fascinating target, even though i only have a relatively short focal length scope. I was stunned by how bright it is - i barely had to do any stretching or saturation boost to get the colour and the luminance to pop.

Had to do some significant cropping as well as HDR multiscale transform in PI to get any detail in the core, but in the end, i'm very happy with the results.
