Hi all,
This image was taken by Stefan Seip from his trip last year to Chile, where he was guest of Daniel Verschatse at his new amateur Astronomy Inn. Stefan sent me the raw files taken with his ST2000 camera and 155EDF refractor to have me do some image processing for him. I finally got around to finishing it, and here is the result.
