Black Eye Galaxy (M64) Reprocessed

[Davide Simonetti]

Since I started using Nebulosity instead of Deep Sky Stacker I've been reprocessing many of the images that were a bit disappointing and discovering just how much detail was in the data but not coming through. This image is a case in point. When I first processed it all that came out was the nucleus and the dust band. Although still not perfect there's lots more detail now and I feel like I've passed a milestone
