A Quickly Processed Seestar Image of M 16

 I’m visiting my daughter in Northern Indiana. She lives in the country and has a horizon and skies I can only dream of in Charlotte. M16 is a popular target, but impossible for me to image at fro my home observatory due to trees. The Seestar is the perfect travel scope, and it did not disappoint. Here is an image captured last night. It is a 1.5 hour Seestar stack, processed on my phone with Adobe PS Express. I will capture more data and do my full, Siril-based processing workflow, but I thought I’d post this image to show what 5 mins of processing can do with a Seestar jpeg.
