Description

Even Baader Fringe Killer Filter cannot eliminate the prominent blue coma around brighter stars caused by my Bresser 102/460 achromatic refractor. Still I feel it's better to show it rather than removing it with Photoshop. Deep space objects themselves come out nicely; the refractor is definitely a good bargain for getting started in deep space photography. It is cheap and fast.

Registration in Deep Sky Stacker, stacked and processed in SirIl using flats and biases.
