Description

Widefield shot of star formation region known as IC1396. This large nebula contains the famous Elephant Nebula. Shot with lots of stuff I used more or less for the first time; a Samyang 135mm f/2 lens I bought recently on the second hand market, a Optolong L-Extreme clip in filter I bought second hand this winter and I switched from photoshop to Affinity Photo. There are things that probably could use improvement, but already I am very pleased.
