Description

About an hour of integration (which is really little for such a faint object). Tried to do dithering manually (I don’t have these fancy guide things) and ruined 1.5 hours of integration, accidentally turned off the tracking 🥺. Also, struggled with a nasty grid gradient pattern which have never seen before. So this image was really challenging for me, should definitely revisit it some time

upd:
The reason of the grid pattern was using a grid paper to reflect the light while making my flats  it'll be a nice lesson though
