Details:
A stack of 9 photos in HDR (Photoshop) from NEF converted to TIF and deconvoluted with Lucy Richardson before final adjustments in Photoshop from mid-eclipse that shows the corona's magnetic lines and Regulus in its blue-white color. This is closer to my eye to the telescopic sight of the beautiful view in Eastern Idaho. Imaging equipment was Vixen VSD astrograph and a Nikon D500 camera mounted on an iOptron Alt AZ mount. The sky was lighter than the black, kind of a dark blue bright darkness.

If Regulus is to the lower left, than the spec in the upper right is 27Leo (?).

Looks good & not over processed..I photographed it from Glendo, WY and the coronal details look very natural as seen with unaided eyes. I have a number of stars in my images but cannot identify all of them...yet. Very nice job!
