Description

I took this image using a large diameter dobsonian (a 32 inch F3.05 slipstream telescope) . Captured with an alt az tracking mount.  I used a zwo ASI 071 camera with short exposures at unity gain.   I stacked 17 - 5 second exposures and edited in both pixinsite and photoshop.  I did not use any flats or darks.  It’s a beautiful star nursery there with some dense areas of nebula showing up adjacent to some stars.  Thank you for looking.
