Photo description / processing

Well, this is the first test of the ASI Plus. Initially, there was an issue with polar alignment because, for some reason, the mount wasn't moving, but I think I sorted it out. Unfortunately, in Bortle 7, half an hour of exposure on Iris is not much—I'll gather more in the future. Also, I remembered that I've been using Bakhtinov mask for half a year now.
