Description

Melotte 15, the Heart of the Heart nebula is such a beautiful object. I captured it many times lately, at 135mm, around 400 and now with the C11 at around 2000mm! This is a 2 panel mosaic. The first mosaic I have ever done with this telescope. I am happy with the framing but will probably add some more data to it, at least for RGB stars. I need cloudless, moonless, but also windless nights. The mount was struggling the wind so I could only use half of all my data... A bigger mount is on my wishlist.
