The center is aligned from the previous photo to avoid a completely blown-out area. Scale and orientation are preserved, for which a test shot was taken.
NGC 6543
Photo description / processing
A faint object from the city center with a dark tube under moonlight—just what I needed! But there's the word "want." Shot with what I had. I don't see the point in collecting hydrogen data. Maybe my mega attempt will inspire someone to capture the nebula with something more amateur than a "masterpiece" xD
