I shot Sll+Olll and stacked it in my favorite palette. It really is a magical shot. Everything went wrong from the very beginning of the shoot in August. I had to throw away some of the shots. Then I adjusted the spider in the telescope, and on the stack with the second filter, I realized something was wrong (the diffraction spikes were misaligned)=). Then I stacked the frames incorrectly, everything was misaligned, and I didn't even notice it right away. I had to redo everything. But now everything seems to be in its place. Both the nebula and the stars. This Wizard really frayed my nerves.

Taken with the Moon at 75% visibility. Initially, things just didn't work out with this nebula. And the autofocuser created out-of-focus images, so another 10 frames had to be discarded.
