Description

First light for my modded 6D! Also the first time I use layer masks in Gimp to get a bit more detail in the core, combining the main subs with 5 second exposures. The final image is quite noisy, but I hope it will be solved once I can get (way) more integration time. The weather has been lousy for a while, and the opportunity to shoot was hard to ignore even with the large amount of low clouds.

Title: Reprocessed

Description: I ended up reprocessing it, for the best, I think. The dust is less evident, but the overall appearance is smoother and the colors more natural.
