Description

The California Nebula NGC 1499 was imaged over two nights after the Veil Nebula was eclipsed by our house. The camera rotation was optimized for the Veils hence the FOV is a bit awkward for this target but hey, every moment of clear skies has to be used to the fullest, right :-)

Modified Canon 1100d @ ISO 1600. Lights: 74x180". Calibration: 40 flats, 20 darks, 20 dark flats, 20 bias.

As always, improvement suggestions are more than welcome. Thanks for watching, clear skies and stay safe!
