I do envy those who can afford to own a remote obs. If I could access good cold, dry, dark skies at an affordable price, I would leap at it. I can't image many of us who would not.
The real art is in the processing. Once again, I envy those who have mastered PI and other arcane techniques and can produce such beautiful work with it. I doubt that there are many of us who do not.
So what's the beef. The great imagers are, with no exceptions known to me, meticulous and generous with their data acquisition and processing details. We all learn from it. We all set our own sights a little higher because of it. We ASPIRE because of it.
There is no issue as far as I am concerned.
