Elp Posted April 27, 2022 Share Posted April 27, 2022 I assume you're using a largish aperture scope? I ask as I've taken a similar level of exposure with a WO Z61 in a bortle 7 but have very little cloud/dust detail at all, just the initial patch around the bright centre, nothing beyond the internal cloud/dust surfaces.
