This was a tough object to image: NGC3718. At 10.6 apparent magnitude, it was a challenge under my Bortle 8/9 skies. This is arounf 3.5 hours of integration, stacked in the Seestar (over 1284 x 10 seconc frames). I tried stacking in Siril, but it threw away more than half the captured frames, so the image was very noisy. I'm not sure why so many were rejected, because the Seestar stack was much better. This image also shows NGC3729. There are several faint galaxies in the background, but neith Siril nor Astometry.net identifies them.
