I’ve still got some targets in the Milky Way I’m photographing so I will just be pointing over to the east for a few hours a night. I did attempt to take some 20s and 60s images for the core (was just doing some text exposures on the core) but it wasn’t until a week later that I realised that flat fielding without corresponding darks causes horrendous over correction when flat fielding so my 20s and 60s stacks are completely unusable. Considering I only had 8 of each, I didn’t loose much

There was someone a few years ago on Astrobin did that this with a very deep result.

Thanks Rodney. “That season” has started again. I wanted to get this out there before it very quickly hits the “not another one” feeling
