Description

One eye-candy amongst the many that the southern skies have to offer. Lusted after such things and now I can have them. Well, it isn't the same as if you acquired it yourself but it cannot be helped, at least for now.

The supposedly sub-arc-second chilean skies did not quite delivered the goods this time (3.3" average!) and it was surprisingly difficult to try to tease out a decent flattening with all the gradients this one had. Plus, with such few frames to play with (due to their pricing scheme) chasing out all the various shenanigans (cosmic ray hits, trails, noise you name it) iwas quite time consuming. Still, I think in the end it was worth it. Or maybe not, your take.
