Photo description / processing

Decided to visit the gray zone, before that I went there in winter 2025, now the sky seemed significantly darker due to the absence of snow apparently, or maybe something else, there was no goal of long accumulation this time more of a test trip, from calibration a few darks and offsets, didn't do flats.
