Alexey! Something is really off with the processing. With such a setup, the result should be completely different. Please upload the stacked FITS file, let's give it a try. Also, there's a free program called Siril available now for processing and stacking; check it out, it's really awesome.

Thanks Oleg, it was cloudy and low on the horizon. I'll check the FITS file if it's still there. The processing was minimal, no Photoshop.

Here are two images, one without calibration frames, the other with flats and bias. It will be interesting to see what can be made from this. Thank you in advance.

Here you go, you can publish this: https://cloud.mail.ru/public/BnnR/sdyMFyh6W For the future, save your files in a different format for uploading to this site, like JPG. They take up less space and load faster. I processed this quickly in Pixlr.

Excellent, much better. Thank you, Oleg! Can a similar result be achieved in Siril? I want to learn this program.

I can't say you'll get exactly the same result, but very close. Start with the manual available on the website, and then watch the video.
