Thanks! I have a second stack just like this one, with a longer exposure. There's even more dust there.
I shot them twice and ended up with such junk... Once during moonlight, the second time the secondary mirror fogged up. And such funny blobs came out, I even kept them as a memento.
Soap in the nebula or dust?
Well, this is only 16 minutes total. What's the point in sharpening? There's a second stack with a longer exposure. But there I had to make the stars softer instead, otherwise it doesn't look very good.
Is it really embarrassing to share astrophotography at all? I'm practicing my processing skills. How will I know my mistakes if I keep my astro photos under my pillow?
I know. But there's no clear weather, and I'm not sure when to gather data. There are also higher-priority targets: the Rosette Nebula, the Dolphin Nebula, Thor's Helmet, and Casper.
