Whoops, probably shouldve thrown that in the title. it was a 10s exposure at iso 8000, wide open at f/1.2

i processed using darktable. this was my first time trying anything remotely astro related, so any criticism welcome! there's some hot pixels down there in the shadows i coudlve cleaned up a bit more, but meh

Edit: just to add some more detail because I failed to read the rules. Sorry bout that. I processed in darktable, essentially I just used darktable's astro Denoise module, set the strength to around 75. I used the regular Denoise profiled module, and capture sharpening. I pushed the darks down and pulled the highlights up in the sky with color balance RGB and a mask, and did essentially the opposite with a second color balance RGB instance in order to bring out the land and the house. I had quite a few hot pixels that I tried to remove with the hot pixel module, but it didn't seem to work, so I used retouch to just remove them. They were all in the land section so I didn't disturb any stars

thanks. this was my first time trying astro.

i took this in mt holly, vermont, this past weekend. near okemo
