About this image

I'd imaged Neptune two nights earlier but my Triton capture didn't work out. This time I spent a bit longer on the settings before recording an overexposed Neptune for Triton ans well as a normal Neptune with a faint indication of Triton in the stack. I then took the better exposed Triton from the over exposed Neptune stack and replaced the smudge of Triton with the better exposed image from the next video with the properly exposed Neptune image.
