Photo description / processing

I added a bit of hydrogen and had some moonless nights to shoot without filters. Captured on March 17 and 25, with full calibration in each channel. After alignment and noise removal, I combined them in equal proportions using PixelMath, then proceeded as usual with StarNet2 and levels.
