Original FITS images were 3 minute exposures unbinned captured with the SBIG STF-8300M using TheSkyXPro's Camera Add-On. Stretched and DDPed in Nebulosity3. The resulting tifs were rotated 180 deg for north up then processed in ImagesPlus 5.0 to normalize and align frames which were then reduced to 25% then run through Ulead GIF Animator 2.0.
