About this image

Poor seeing. Experimenting with ASI 585MC camera and IR let through filter. 64.5 seconds of data collected, FPR 317, 20,000 frames. Best 20% stacked in AS!4 and sharpened in WaveSharp. False colour removed and brightened in FastStone Image Viewer. Given the quality of the original data file, I'm amazed there is such "clarity" in the stacked and sharpened image.
