Taken with a Seestar S50 from Madrid, Spain. Roughly 1 hour of 30 sec exposures. I followed a different pipeline (Outten Astrophotography) for stretching and I could resolve many stars in the core!
Equipment and acquisition:
– Seestar S50, EQ mode, 30 sec exposures
– UV/IR cut filter
Processing (PI and Siril):
– WBPP 2x drizzle
– SetiAstro DBE, SPCC, BlurX, NoiseX
– SetiAstro statistical stretch (soft)
– CreateHDR image
– StarX
– Starless (core): curves transformations with range mask to control saturation and intensity
– Stars: starmask, curves transformations
– Star recombination (siril), star reduction
