Last capture of M83 earlier this week with my 6” f6 newt until the next dark towards the end of May
70 x 90 sec dithered guided subs
20 x darks
ISO 800
Canon 600D
Had to do a gradient and a vignette Wipe to clear the LP which removed some detail as well , forgot to mask out the galaxy
Also chose a heavy de noise at around 8.0 pixels but also lost some detail in the process
I’m going to reconsider imaging galaxies and nebulas the week prior and after the full moon as you obviously lose a fair amount of detail in the processing
