Canon EOS RebelT7i 'mod. UV-IR A Hutech' thru a TeleVue 2.5XPowerMate into a TeleVue 2XPowerMate for 5900mmFL thru a 152mm A+M Refractor(OfficinaStellare) on an Astro-Physics 1200GTO Mount for ' thirty-five RAWMonochrome Autosaves for 125secISO6400 in MaximDL Pro V6.16 and Astrometric - Average stacked . Then I put the 'screen-stretch' carots to contain the data using an amount of 4096 and then I used the "Stretch" command and made the FITS a 12BIT image or 4096 light shades which looked OK and I did 'SaveAs...' IEEEFloat and then I put the FITS image into "ImagesPlus" to work on it . For the 'center' star in NGC40 I used the "'Stretch' command for 'Brightness and Contrast' and I left-clicked on the 'center' star for a 'Minimum' value which is a high value and I increased the 'Brightness' slider all the way to the right for full brightness and then I used the 'Minimum' slider to control for a maximum brightness on the star . Then I did other commands to darken the background .x
