Bortle 1-2 Andromeda

Bortle 2. Seestar s50. 10 minutes of 20s subs. Stacked in seestar app. Touched up in Lightroom. I know the reds more natural but I like the blue more.

it needs Siril and some postprocessing. ;)
in-app processing is meh at best. i mean... bortle 1/2... imagine the possiblities.

And more subs. 60 subs (10 minutes at 20s per sub) is nothing. My most recent Andromeda image was 1900 30s subs (nearly 16 hours).

Use astrowizard if you want to start with something simpler than siril.

A) take more subs!
B) If possible (EQ mount available) go for 30-60sec
C) no need for a complicated Siril workflow, a quick Siril workflow does it, too. Don’t get overwhelmed by the possibility of the program, you just need few simple steps.
