Can you give access to the original RAW I've not done all that much Milky Way stuff, I had plans for this years peak but those got shelved looks like your sensor could do with a clean too

You can upload it to for example Dropbox, then post a download link here

Nope simply because the link isn't working if you go to the file there should be a download link you need to copy that

I think your going to struggle to bring out the detail that you see in many other Milky way shots. Mainly because you've not shot the brightest part of the Milky way. Your going to have to wait until next June'ish for that.

There are a couple of You tube tutorials where they show you how to bring out the bright bits but they have to be there in the first place.


P.s. If anyone manages to make it look "like" the normal Milky way shots, I've got loads that need help
