This is an old photo shot with my 40D in 2012. Any tips on removing the vertical banding that is visible? That and the graininess are driving me crazy. I have an older edit which was quite a bit softer and lacked that. I guess that's part of the trade off, sharpening vs noise. I edited this up in about a minute so I may spend a little more time dealing with the noise.
This is from my fire escape in Harlem, Manhattan, March 2012 of the conjunction of Jupiter & Venus on the night of their closest approach when they were only 3 degrees apart in the sky. Just goes to show that you can do astrophotography even in the most light polluted of locations. Here is a celestial event as seen from "the city that never sleeps." Don't let you location get in the way of appreciating the night sky.
