Hope this low effort post is accepted, I just wanted to share my first image when I started.

There was no telescope or tracker used, just a smartphone leaned against my wallet.

Images:

  • ~400 x 1s
  • ISO 3200

Editing:

  • stacking/ stretching in Siril
  • GraXpert for gradient and denoising
  • BlurXTerminator for deconvolution
  • Starnett++ to edit the barely visible nebula a bit better
  • final editing in Photoshop

    I take it there was heavy editing after the initial capture - not least because of the constellation lines.

      Yes, I used Siril for stacking/ stretching, Starnett++ for star removal (to edit the glimpse of orion nebula a little better), GraXpert for gradient and noise, and BlurXTerminator for deconvolution. Final editing was done in Photoshop.

      So heavy editing indeed…
