Description

I did a wide frame of this region last season and when i had gotten my current setup, i wanted to do a closer framing of it.
For a long time i thought it was out of my reach as i image from my balcony it is quite high up most of the night. But one night i decided i would at least try and to my surprise i could get some data on it.

Editing wise it was a challenge but i got the combination of colors i wanted. They may not be very natural or correct but im not that kind of astrophotographer that goes for the true colors right now but work on it until i think it looks good.
