Description

Flying Bat & Squid Nebula SH2-129 - Saw an interesting image on the Big Wall and it got my curiosity going. A Squid hanging out with a Bat does not sound like a healthy relationship. My brief analysis indicated this image might be more difficult than normal. But fools rush in with inexperienced newbies to give it a try. After many hours of retirement time struggling with cloudy skies and processing software I got an "almost Astrobin worthy" image. Learned some things and will give this one another effort someday. Spent two nights finding out I needed a wider angle and more O3 data since that seems to be the only way to see the Squid.
