I also see myself as a beginner in this journey. It's always been surprising to see the unexpected results our simple digital camera can achieve in deep sky imaging. Let's progress together and clear sky!

Thanks a lot, you enlighted me on how to preserve star colors. I was wondering if it was light pollution that was causing my galaxies images look bleached but it was too aggressive stretch without highlight protection. I would have done it differently outisde of Siril though but ofc that's just my taste :) again: thank you very much :)

Thank you for leaving this encouragement message. As you mentioned, light pollution affects a lot on the broadband target, such as reflection nebulae, galaxies, and stars, due to the specific emission from the artificial light sources (kzread.info/dash/bejne/aHqhj9WHh5W2mdY.htmlsi=Z9eZpLL_9CY_a7EH&t=778).

How many light frames did you use? Also what was the light frame setting?

It was from three nights data, and I forget the exact number of the total light frames because it was untracked. However, I do recorded a rough integration time, and it was about 40 mins in total. The camera settings for all subframes were 1.3 seconds, ISO 3200 with a300mm f/4 lens on a tripod.

No sound ?
