Photo description / processing
I'm continuing to figure out the stars, but it's not going very well so far. When stacking in DSS, the stars turn out pale and bloated. I tried stacking in PixInsight, and the image comes out black and white, but with normal stars, just desaturated. If anyone is willing to help me figure out what's going on here, I can upload the raw files to a drive and share the link. I'd be grateful.
