Description

This is the first image I've taken and fully processed using my new long focal length telescope rig since installing it back in June. I've had a lot of issues with the camera I'm using, and have only been able to take about an hour of data each clear night of imaging before the camera freezes/crashes. I think it's some USB issue I need to debug. This Dumbbell integration is about 8 hours of narrowband data from 3nm Ha and OIII filters. I'd like to capture a bit more Ha data to add into this mix, hopefully make the fine red details pop a bit more. Hope you enjoy! Feedback greatly appreacated as always.
