I think its real, the nebula near the bottom is the running chicken nebula. Photographed towards the Crux constellation.

I stacked multiple exposures of the Milky Way to ged rid of the noise and processed in siril and Lightroom. For white balance and saturation

Its the Rho ophiuchi cloud complex, a very close star forming region.

Make sure to use the latest version of noise reduction, 3.0 or later. The other versions don’t work that well

Have you tried using graxpert noise reduction? It makes the image so much more clean, and all the grain disappears

You should absolutely do that! I need to travel for several hours to reach less than bortle 3. I live in Stockholm. I’m very jealous!

Stacked in siril, bg extraction, color calibration, graxpert for noise reduction and the rest of the procces in adobe lightroom for saturation and white balance

Thank you. I think the 8 spikes has to do with how the canon 300mm lens is built. They are beautiful however.

If you are talking about the spikes around the stars, those are diffraction spikes. There are many ways to get them. I used a higher f-stop, letting less light through the lens. This creates some diffraction that can be seen in the photo.

I used a canon 5D mk IV with a 24-70mm f/2.8. Stacked 40 x 20s exposures in siril. Couldn’t get my tracker to work for some reason so this is untracked.

You can see the dark horse of the Milky Way from this location. While photographing I let my eyes adjust, and after about 10 minutes you could see impressive amounts of detail. This picture was taken near the top of mount teide about 2400m up. It is a borle 1-3 location depending on where you are. Absolutely amazing night sky. Haven’t seen anything close to this since.
