It seems the calibration with the flats didn't work that well. Tinted at the left and the right border (red and blue). Workflow: - Removal of worst satellite Frames - Calibration with Flats - Registering - total of 221 frames to be processed - Stacking - Cropping, Background extraction and denoising in GraXpert - Aberration Removal (Siril Script) - Photometric Color Correction - Stretching using ASinH Algorithm - Slight S-Curve adjustments - Slight Saturation adjustment
