Description

After weeks of bad weather the forecast predicted a night of clear sky. Of course around fullmoon. Sadly the forecast was fooling me and there were clouds rolling in throughout the night. I had to throw away two thirds of my subs and the remaining subs were of moderate quality at best. Hence the resulting image is extremely noisy.

I integrated the frames using 2x drizzle and cropped the image to zoom in on the fishhead.

I may reprocess the data again once i have collected OIII data for a bicolor image. But for now i stick with this version.
