Description

This has been a difficult target for me to image in my bortle 8 backyard. Its low enough in the sky that I get an additional light gradient from street lights across the alley. This image was acquired with the Hutec LDAS LPS D2. Plan is to compare with a narrowband nebula filter, DGM NPB, later this week. As per usual, Pixinsight DBE was used to remove background gradients. A mask was prepared from luminance image prior to reducing background luminance and chrominance MLT. After contrast stretching with STF, Curves was used for final color saturation adjustments.
