I have recently published a post about the techniques that I used to process my image of LDN 1089 (https://app.astrobin.com/i/gfwv5v). Unlike my two previous posts, this is not a full step-by-step walkthrough, but it rather focuses on the challenges encountered while processing an image where both faint dust and a very bright star can be found, and how I tackled them.
You can find the write-up at https://maketronica.wordpress.com/2025/08/03/ldn-1089/ – I hope you’ll find it useful, please be sure to give me feedback or ask any questions you might have.
