Description

A very lucky capture that has been a few days in the making as I work to fine-tune capture and processing techniques.

At the moment I have a very limited window of opportunity to capture this before dawn as it rises above my local horizon.

For this capture, I had setup two scopes; both were pointed at this beauty as it rose from behind the trees in the in the ever increasing dawn light. This has been very difficult to manage the capturing and effective processing of the images. I've used every ounce of my limited PixInsight knowledge to try and manage the gradients, stacking artifacts, lack of guiding, etc.

Its been worth it though.
