Description

An interesting result from imaging this too-large-for-my-telescope nebula. I aimed for the center to capture the finer filaments. The outer regions - in general very present in mainstream DSLR images from this nebula - seem to have vanished.

60 x 45" lights / 20 bias / 10 darks / 80 flats

Sky-Watcher 8" f5 with Fujifilm X-T1 @1250 ISO
