I generated a map with Star Atlas Pro and used it to make a rectilinear version of your image. I used Registar to do this.

This should plate solve? as now there are no distortions?

You can also use it as a template for any further images.

Hope this helps.

It is a nice image indeed, Marc! And a thanks for a very useful tip, Bert!

Bert, what projection did you use in Star Atlas Pro?

Bert, I have Registar but don't have Star Atlas and was wondering if you could upload just the star maps for the southern, central and northern parts of the Milky Way so I could try to "rectilinearise" my widefield images?

Thanks,
Alex
