Finally, after a long month of making movies only, a deepsky image, albeit sabotaged by clouds, both thick and thin. Seeing wasn’t that poor, though. The “Lion” is fainter than I imagined, and this is all I could unveil in Siril and GraXpert after barely 1½ hours integration. Not really happy with it, but as the song goes, “♫ The Lion Sleeps Tonight ♬”.
