With a widened sky view after some tree trimming, I am now able to get some more significant integration time each clear night. As noted in the image details, due to the lack of aforementioned clear nights, it took nearly a month to accumulate the ~22 hours of integration time acquired for this image. This is another object at which I am
taking a second shot with about 2 years more experience and exponentially increasing financial investment. The image from 2021 was taken with my original DSLR with 300mm lens kit.
I recently learned a technique for obtaining better Oiii color from my OSC with the attached Optolong L-ultimate filter. Its a technique I am still trying to become familiar with. Will likely do some revisions to this and a couple other images I captured with this filter. Additionally, I am still having issues with corner stars resulting in the need to crop.
