Description

The wonderful Wizard Nebula in SHO. This was taken over the course of 5 nights and at one point was interrupted by squirrels chewing through my cables. Of all the things to go wrong when leaving your telescope out overnight, that was about the last thing I expected!

I think I might have gone a little overboard with the noise reduction, or maybe I should've been more aggressive with BlurX as I think it looks a bit soft in some places. Part of softness could also the focal length - I think I would've benefited with a slightly longer FL. Regardless, after much turmoil processing this target, I am happy with the way it turned out - imperfections and all
