Description

A weekend with clear skies. A weekend with a full moon. A full moon so bright you could read a book at midnight without a light. It completely ruined my galaxy sessions, so on Saturday, I decided to switch to Optolong L-eXtreme and nebulae. The jury is still out on my NGC 2467 as the colours are too messed up, but my session with NGC 5189, the Spiral Planetary nebula could be saved (with a bit of effort!). The moon was high in the west and NGC 5189 was high in the south west, so not much of a separation. I could probably have gotten another hour in, which i regret now. I'm still very please with the results, though!

Title: Minor local histogram tweaks

Description: I knew there was som much details not coming out that I went back to an old tutorial (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7FtpC5fXTGA) by View into Space on Youtube and it improved the final result a tiny bit. Enough to justify a new revision :-)
