My sister said my astro shots looked 'too perfect' to be real

She saw my stacked image of the Orion Nebula from last weekend and thought it was a NASA picture. Makes you wonder about sharing the raw process more, you know?

Maybe the real art is hiding all that work, right?

That's actually a huge compliment, but I get why it feels weird. Do you ever worry that showing the whole process, like the raw single frames, would make the final result seem less special? I'm torn because the stacking and editing is such a big part of the skill.
