Description

The wizarz nebula is a little bit difficult from the city.

I tried my best, but need much more exposure time.

Unfortunately, I had problems with the mount driver, an had to reinstall it.

Which cost me even more exposure time.

Maybe you like it anyway...

Thanks for watching !

Object description (Wikipedia):

NGC 7380 (also known as the Wizard Nebula) is an open cluster discovered by Caroline Herschel in 1787. William Herschel included his sister's discovery in his catalog, and labelled it H VIII.77. It is also known as 142 in the 1959 Sharpless catalog (Sh2-142). This reasonably large nebula is located in Cepheus. It is extremely difficult to observe visually, usually requiring very dark skies and an O-III filter.
