Great shot. How many frames where stacked to get this image?
Thank you.
I stacked 150 frames from a one minute video shot at 50 frames per second.

Thanks Sonny.
I've been seeing quite a bit of smoke and right now we are getting smoke from Oregon swirling in from the North East. We have a stationary high that is stuck over Arizona so not getting your smoke just yet..
I was going to try and shoot it again last night but the winds were nasty at higher levels.
I'll add a screen shot of the wind profile I had along with a picture of the sunset the last couple of nights.
Stay safe my friend.

What focal length were you at?
Roughly 2550mm
I have an Orion Crawford focuser to minimize mirror shift.

Cool, that gives me hope for my 8" Edge HD. I might also try a 2x Barlow with a ZWO ASI178 as soon as the skies clear a bit and temp drops below 95.

I just finished a stack of 1500 frames and the edge artifact is still there but more surface detail was pulled.
Again not great and not sure what the issue is but here is that shot cropped and resized for detail.
Stay safe...
