Description

The Lobster Nebula (sometimes known as the War and Peace Nebula) imaged in broadband (OSC).

This was my first trip out to truly dark skies for two years and I was lucky to have (mostly) decent weather.
I didn't get the chance to capture any narrowband data whilst I was away but I guess I could always add some from my normal urban location.
Sadly I wasn't able to fit the whole object into my frame.

This was also my first time stacking with Siril which seems like it has some cool features.
