Description

I Wanted to shoot this for quite sometime due to the presence of dust in the field. I started shooting this when the moon was waning and thought it should be fine. However, vast majority of subs had gradients that made the dust extraction very challenging. That coupled with windy conditions basically decimated the subs. 

I shot a total of 
L - 167x10 minutes - 27 hours
R/G/B - 32x10 minutes  - 15 total hours

After rejecting, I ended up with 36x10  minutes of L, 12x10 minutes of R/G/B each! 

This is processed in Pixinsight and PS. All the shots were shot unguided.
