Description

One of two projects captured before the October rain set in.  I have been practicing the post-processing part of astrophotography for the last few weeks.Sh2-114 Flying Dragon - located between Cynus and Lacerta. It is a faint nebula and is 12.0 x 6.0 arc minutes apparent size.  It is a less frequently imaged deep sky target.  The processing involved creating an HOO version, star removal, split channels recombined into an SHO derived from the OSC data.

Enjoy! Scope - ES ED 102mm @ 709mmCamera - Asi533mc proFilter - L-Ultimate Mount - CEM40ECAsiAir ProIntegration ~ 10 hours - 135 x 300 secondsAstropixel ProcessorPixinsight - some aspects of the "Forax" palette were applied. Stars were recombined using a pixel math 'power of inverted' pixels formula. (If interested you can view paulyman astro on Youtube for an introduction.PhotoshopAstrobin has a slightly larger version.
