I wanted to capture the Sombrero Galaxy. A month later, I returned to the raw files... Processed in Siril, noise reduction with GraXpert, Cosmic Clarity, and GIMP. No guiding, so 8-second exposures are the limit.

Beautiful result.
But I would make the background a little darker. Though that's just a matter of personal taste.

Thank you) I agree about the background, it’s worth dropping it a bit into the black.
