Description

SH2-170, also known as The Little Rosette Nebula,  is an emission nebula in the constellation of Cassiopea. 

This image is the result of 7  hours of narrowband data collected during the incredible stretch of weather we just had in western NY November 5-8, 2021. I ended up getting in 4 nights of capture on 3 scopes and collected data on 9 Targets!

This is the second image I have been able to process from this trove of data. 

This was taken with my Astro-Physics 130mm f/8.35 APO scope, the IOptron CEM60 mount, and the ZWO ASI2600MM-Pro camera. 

Full details on the capture and extensive processing notes for this image are available on my website at the link below:

Please check it out and let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks for looking!
