Description

The squid is an extremely faint object. Despite over 10 hours of OIII it proved tricky to extract reasonable information from the data. The decision then is to what extent this faint object should be 'revealed' in the final image.

The subs were shot between 28 and 31 August 2017 on the dual rig at my home observatory in Notts (UK).
