I could use some help understanding some astrophotos I come across.
Maybe we could make it a fun forum game: someone posts a random astro image or crop, and others try to explain what we’re seeing — actual object features, processing artifacts, noise, reflections, pareidolia, catalog info, etc.
I think it would be a good way to learn how experienced imagers interpret photos and separate real structures from imaging/processing effects.
what are these? They are gigantic
weird arrows with something inside.
more large scale tubes
