Description

My first attempts with the new equipment resulted in this picture, among others. Unfortunately, I could only record about 30 minutes before clouds were in the way again. Also the location was not appropriate, because it was unfortunately very light polluted.

With an unmodified camera, shooting H-alpha is a challenge when you have limited shooting time. Unfortunately, the rosette nebula is already very low in the sky in spring, so I have a maximum of 1 hour of recording time in the evening. Of course, the nebula is already deep in the light of the city.
