Description

For this special crop I´d  used old data from year 2020 + new ones from this year and tried to achieve as much details as possible including richer star field. I wish the resolution was higher but it is not possible due to low resolution of original dataset from year 2020. But still I´m greatful for this result, plus it was nice exercise of dynamic alignment in Pixinsight for me since the old data was acquired by completely diffrent camera, scope, filterset with given focal lenght 850mm vs new data set with FL600mm  

So here we go...the old CCD technology meets the new CMOS right there in the heart of M106 Galaxy core
