Description

I revised this because I thought the original looked a little lifeless, flat, and "plasticky". Boosted the glow and saturation a bit, and did less noise reduction. Decided not to overlay the 30 second version for the core.

Title: M31 Andromeda Galaxy revision

Description: Thought the original looked lifeless, flat, dull, and plasticky. I increased the saturation a little bit and backed off the noise reduction, as well as increased the glow around the galaxy. Also, the two small fuzzy galaxies were overexposed in the 60-second stack, so I took them from my 30-second stack and overlaid them on the 60-second image.
