Description

Finally had the time to process the data that's been lying in my hard drive for 2 years. Learned some new post-processing techniques with this photo. The subs are taken pretty short 180s without guiding that night due to some guide camera driver issue so the RGB channel does not align perfectly and this creates some strang star colors. I would say will definitely revisit this target in the future for a better result.
