Taken at an ASWA viewing night.
This was the first image I processed from the night, and while I removed much of the light pollution it is still clearly visible as a halo around the trees at the bottom of the FOV. A

This was the first image I processed from the night, and while I removed much of the light pollution it is still clearly visible as a halo around the trees at the bottom of the FOV. As I continued to process the other images I learned more and greatly improved the technique of removing light pollution. I might re-do this one eventually, but it's a good comparison as it is.
