Can you include acquisition info?

Took on my Sony A7S with a Sony 16-50mm (at 16mm) APS-C lens f3.5 (hence the strong vignetting as it dosent illuminate the fullframe sensor).

15s exposure at ISO 8000.

Raw edited with rawtherapee.

No Tripod used i just placed the cam on its back into the slightly wet grass.

Was that the info u been looking for?

Yep! It helps people give good feedback on images, and can help serve as a guide for newer people to the hobby

@einfach_orangensaft I can tell you most of them are not dead pixels, and you captured the Andromeda Galaxy, just above the dark tree in the lower part of the picture.

I will never forget the time when I was fortunate enough to visit an observatory and, for the very first time, saw Andromeda with my naked eye. Up until then, it's pictures like these that were the only way I could see it.

It's a great photo. 💜

There's noise, not dead pixels. The brighter spots are definitely stars, and a galaxy.
