Description

My first attempt at narrowband imaging with my ASI1600MM-Cool camera. It was processed in PixInsight.

I collected OIII and SII frames as well, but had problems with them due to some kind of lens flare likely caused by Sadr being blown out/overexposed. In even this Ha-only image, there are artifacts around Sadr. I'm still learning how to get nebulosity signal while in the neighborhood of a bright star.
