Description

This is my first run using data taken by someone else from a remote dark site. In this case this excellent data is courtesy of Dark Matter Astrophotography in Animas, NM. I worked hard to try and get the extended structure to show through without sacrificing overall image quality. The blend was done in Pixinsight using the dynamic SHO palette as a starting point (heavy emphasis on starting point). I ended up with several version of the image and blended a few of them together for the final product.
