Description

Here is another one of the images I took in 2017 when I was first starting out and which i have now re-processed. It was taken with a astro modified Canon 5D mark III and a 102mm F5 refractor. At only 30 minutes total exposure time, I am quite impressed with what I captured.  Even Alnitak is reasonably well behaved.

This image comprises 15*120 second exposures taken at ISO1600 and stacked in DSS. It was processed just now with PI using  dynamic crop, ABE, PCC, BXT and NXT. A bit of sharpening with advsharpen and it was finished with dark structure enhance. A few tweaks in Photoshop and voila. I think i want my old 5d back.
