Hi, Got 109 images x120" exposure..When stacked, and in the upper left part you can see that the nebula is trail while stars are good !! means its not guiding issue ! I tried the following: Stacked three groups of images, 36 each to isolate the affected ones >> all gives the same bad result.Tried both APP and DSS >> same result.Tried to stack the lights only w/o any calibration frames>> same result.I checked every single frame >> they are good and stars are round (except a small amount of sensor tilt) which I accepted.Revised PHD2 reports>> all good NB: Due to the target is a Dark nebula, Its too hard to see any nebula in a single 120" image even with strong stretching , all you can see are round stars and a very faint dark nebula which you can't decide if its trail or not. Gears:Askar ACL200 f4, I used many times and gives a good result ASI 2600mc pro, Zero temp. sensor, with camera anti-dew heater turned ON AM5 mount ASI 290mm mini with WO 50mm scope as a guider. Ambient temp. was 18c and humidity is around 30% This is the first time I faced this kind of problem, ONLY one part of the image is affected !! Any suggestions? Here you can see:the stacked image (Pixinsight ABE and stretched) with the affected area : https://www.dropbox....t=h7kbthen&dl=0 And here is a 120" single image (Pixinsight ABE and stretched) https://www.dropbox....t=e0xr1bf1&dl=0 |

Thanks Johannes Maximilian Möslein Oh my God ! Jupiter was there yes, as I took images in 02/12/2024 , But it was about 6 degrees away from my target.. Didn't expect that at all.. In addition, no any indication of flare/reflection in the frames when observing the imaging session. So, it leads to a question: If this can't be noticed in single frame, what is the safety distance between planets and the targets? 10 degrees, 20 or more? OR what is the best way to avoid that? is it to go away from the whole area around planets? |

2 fields away should be just right. From the edge of the frame, obvs.
