Description

This is the second target I seriously attempted with my ASI 1600 - and I think it looks pretty good. Already my results with this are much better than previously with either of my DSLR's and the larger FOV is great compared to my Atik 314.

I have been working to make the images look less processed - I was using the Life module in Startools and it always seemed to give an uncanny glow to objects with the settings I used. I think this looks much better.

I need to work on my star shrinkage too - I pulled them down a little but it left some halos. I'll keep working on that as I progress with the camera.
