Description

This object was imaged on 11/7/20 with a Takahashi FSQ-130ED and a 645 reducer. The image camera was a Canon Ra and 20 images were taken at ISO 800 for 300 seconds each. A Skytech LPRO-MAX filter was used since I get some light pollution in my area. Guiding was done with a 60mm guide scope and a ZWO camera. PHD2 and APT software was used during the acquisition and resulting images were stacked with DSS. Final processing was done with Photoshop.
