Colorado CJ, great job - spectacular image! Also, thanks for sharing some info about the equipment and images captured. I envy the high altitude, dry air, and good seeing available to you in CO. I noticed you were using a Mac. It seems like many of the astrophotography apps (image stackers, other postprocessing, autoguiding, CCD camera software, etc.) are geared towards Windows machines. As I'm starting to get into this hobby, I'm wondering if you are able to go through the entire process of image capture through post processing using only a Mac.
I am actually running Windows in Bootcamp and using Astro Photography tool, PDH2 and Stellarium.
I just got the ASIAIR (a Raspberry Pi based all-in-one system) and I am liking that so far. It will make my power needs much lower by not having to use a laptop.
I do still stack/edit in the Mac using Astro Pixel Processor for stacking and finishing up in Photoshop.
