Love it Dave, great explanation as always. The starless image is jaw dropping. The fact that you're able to capture such images from Toronto is amazing.

What a difference between your first attempt and this one! I think I prefer the version with stars, but only slightly prefer it. Great work Dave!!

Grazie Massimo! I know you prefer those pesky stars in astrophotography images! 😃😉

is there any point of flattners if you do starless photos?

[@keystothecosmos7527]

So without a reducer you'll most likely get vignetting. However that can usually be fixed with flat frames. But yes if you're doing starless, a reducer is definitely not as important
