First attempt at Pixinsight for post processing. Better result (IMO) than with Capture One. Very powerful program, but learning curve is steep🙀 Not sure what it is, but dark circles in background. If anyone has any ideas as to source, or how to remove your comments would be appreciated.

DWB 111, also known as the Propeller Nebula, is a hydrogen-alpha emission nebula in the constellation of Cygnus. The propeller shape is actually a small portion of a much larger emission nebula. Its is thought to lie between 4,500 and 6,000 light years distant.

The Medusa Nebula, also known as Abell 21, is a planetary nebula located in the constellation Gemini, about 1,500 light-years from Earth. It is the remnant of a dying star that shed its outer layers, forming a complex, glowing shell of ionized gas. Its twisted, filamentary appearance and faint greenish hue give it a resemblance to the serpent-haired figure from Greek mythology, inspiring its name.

Mineral moon. Are the colors real? Yes and no. I achieved these colors by significantly increasing the saturation. I also adjusted the color tones and grading using Lightroom. This was something new I wanted to experiment with.
Some technical details: I used my astrophotography equipment from my balcony. I recorded a 5-minute video of the moon (30GB) and processed it using PIPP, AutoStakkert, PixInsight, and Lightroom.

A test to try out my QHY294C OSC camera as I have just bought the mono version of the same camera but the software on all 4 of my laptops will not recognise the camera. The first laptop I tried with the 294C did not work but the second one did. Will have to find out why this is happening. Maybe a dud camera?
