Description

Another reprocessed image, but this is all what I have (actually, a great Astrobin friend provided me with some data, on which I can work from this weekend on 😊, more to come!). Reprocessing "old" data is actually giving quite some joy, seeing what kind of improvements one can accomplish. Not the same as gathering new or additional data, 2023 weather though crosses out any of this.
In my last image, several people commented about the core being washed out by the brightness, and I could not have agreed more with this. Hence, my focus in this edition was to correct this, and indeed, it made quite a different image out of it. Resolution is at 920 mm focal length not ideal, I believe a C11 or bigger would really come in handy to increase the details.
* after such good feedback decided to promote for IOTD consideration.
