Description

This is a very large nebula that covered the whole field of my reduced Askar Fra400 (280 mm with APS-C sensor).
Unfortunately, in addition to being very large, it is also very weak so the many hours of integration did not allow me to reach an acceptable level of background noise.
I was hoping that after 10 hours of oxygen integration a little bit I would see it in the final image and instead it is very weak.
To give the stars the color I did a very short session with RGB filters.
I used Pixinsight's NBRGB_combination script to fuse hydrogen oxygen and RGB.
The shots were taken from my balcony in the province of Siena (bortle 4.5, sqm 20) when the object was between 30 and 50 degrees in altazimuth (unfortunately I have the roof above and I cannot climb any further).
