Hello,
The Dragon is low early in the night (30 °) but the nights are longer and stable (usually) in the spring so I tried some quick poses this magical nebula.
I did a mixture of 2 layers with my editor:
46000x1s a layer to the background and stars almost 13h over 3 nights: 12,13 and 19 March.
I utilised Pipp for any linked and transformed into BMP for Iris stacks me everything. For this part there was the goal of the chopper corolla outside, I did not get elsewhere! only a little bit.
For the main subject I enjoyed a lull in the 19 March towards 1 hours am to do with my Barlow 1.3x to 400ms.
40000 pictures I have to keep 50% or 2 with Autostakkert I wanted the maximum hue in the colors of the surroundings of the nebula.
I mixed everything with photoshop, and a for clearness I used RawTherapee (great software and above all free!).
The final image:
