B 6-7 Carina Nebula

[spark violet]

This carina data (not the one i have posted before) was taken in my b6-7 backyard. *25 mins of data. This was my first time capturing a nebula.
I have processed the entire thing myself, with BlurX from @ AcmeAstro and guidance with photoshop from @ beanbag racer.

Note: I know there are many issues with this, i made the mistake of shooting in jpg (it was my first nebula image relax), shot with a zoom lens with aberrations and bad stars, i have nowhere near enough integration and i took terrible flats.
Details:
50x30s subs
Nikon D3300 dslr
Skywatcher 2i mount
B6-7
50% moon

PS: pls give me mod

Here was my original process (i did fake stars which i'm very ashamed of):

Tbh I like this version better. The process seems more natural. Although I’m not that picky on what gets “faked” in an image

[spark violet]

Really? the noise is really overpowering in my opinion

[daring nacelle]

I don’t mind it, the oversharpening in the top image does bug me a little

[spark violet]

yeah i asked someone to run blurx for me and i agree it was too over the top but i can't really control that
