Description

This is one of my earliest acquisitions which only used tracking, not guiding, therefore no dithering. The walking noise was pretty bad so I applied heavy noise reduction. The Garnet Star was clone stamped because it had a terrible halo caused by the position of the filter relative to the camera sensor. I'm not sure why this happens, but it seems to only occur when using my T5i, but not my ASI533MC. Anyhow, instead of leaving this in the recesses of my hard drive I figured it's still better to show something for my effort.
