Description

Taken between 4:38a and 5:07a.  This image was processed beginning with PixInsight, and finished in Photoshop. The original edit showed a lot of gradient. I had to start my editing over several times until I arrived at the posted image.  I'm working on being more consistent in my editing work flow, however  I'm still learning that each image is its own challenge, while attempting to learn new or improved techniques.  I'm moderately pleased at the outcome, both in color and contrast, but really would like to re-shoot this object with a lot more integration time.
