Description

Second attempt after much learning of processing techniques in PixInsight. Discovered many horrendous gradient issues were actually due to faint clouds in some images, so these were removed and the whole lot re-calibrated and integrated.

This was taken during COVID-19 lockdown in the UK from my heavily light polluted back garden. Would love to get more integration time on this one day, and maybe get he 12" RC on M88 and M90.

Description: 2nd revision, following 12 months of learning PixInsight. I feel this is a much better attempt with limited data.
