Hello. Great photo! I'd like to know if a star tracker was used when photographing the Orion Nebula? If not, how did you avoid star trailing in the photo? And, if possible, please describe the method for stacking a series of data photos. Thank you in advance! PS: I'm also a beginner astrophotographer, I'm 15 years old. I want to learn how to process images properly, but I'm not very skilled at it yet.
