Description

The image was shot in a short 30 minutes long window of clear sky before the clouds rolled in. Taken in Kraków, Poland (Bortle 7). The data was captured with a Canon DSLR (astro modded) with an Optolong L-eNhance filter and edited to mimic the Hubble palette of colors. Here is my YouTube video about this image and the challenges I had to face: https://youtu.be/RwkTJT-iego
