Description

On the 12th of September I managed to steal one clear night and point my scope to the Wizard Nebula. The seeing through the night was good and stable so I was able to use all the frames.

I processed the data in two color sets:
- one is resembling HOO where I managed to achieve a blue/purple color which I really like.
- the other is the normal duo-band filter look with HA dominating the frame

The thing that I find interesting is that I managed to capture some SNR-like nebulae which is situated between SH2-143 and the group SH2-147 to 149. It is quite faint and hard to spot but it is there. Unfortunately clear nights are scarce. Otherwise I would have collected more data.

CS,
Ivan
