Hello all,

that is my first post :D

I am a big fan of SharpCap and have used it for years. All my images on my website https://www.pixlimit.com I have created with SharpCap. Now I have started with live stacking and have created my first small video.

A long focus very short - and well focused- exposure provides detail at the bright core that
normally gets blown out in the attempt to see the rest of the nebula
