Second set from the telescope
Conditions were much better than last time. Clear skies, no moon, and a near-perfect polar alignment. For once things were going my way.
As before, the subs were stacked in Sequator and tweaked in Affinity Photo.
The first target of the night was Messier 7, also known as Ptolomy’s Cluster. A reasonably prominent star cluster located close to the ’tail’ of Scorpius. It’s visible to the naked eye, and makes a good target.
M7 - Ptolomy's Cluster
Second is Antares and Scorpius rising in the east. After last week’s disappointment, I was determined to get a better result - and I did. Although the post-processing still gave me trouble.
