Description

This image took me a while to process as I stacked the subs in Pixinsight and did most of the processing in Photoshop. I'm still getting familiar with all of Photoshop's capabilities. I find that there is some different functionality in Photoshop that gives better results for certain things. I've been watching Craig Stock's processing videos from Utah Desert Remote Observatories.

One thing I have to confess is that I cheated and used a star spikes plugin in Photoshop; after using a Newtonian I realized how much I love the star spikes
