Description

Continuing my series of widefields using a 200mm lens

Exposition details:

24x 300s Ha

60x60s for each of RGB

This area contains some interesting features that require RGB data. There is this blueish reflection inside the Chrismas tree that I wanted to capture. Did not succeed completly despite bumping up my usual 20x60s per RGB channel to 60x60s. Probably still too short but under my sky long RGB exposures are difficult.
