Description

My first attempt on a widefield image. I used just my Canon and the Lens. No filter or clips for light pollution, which created some problems during processing.

Main object is Barnards Loop but lots of other well known Nebulas are included, as well as the Orion Constellation Stars.

For the process in PixInsight I have to thanks a good friend and "teacher" George Killafis who did most of the work, since I was totally unable to work the image when I first stacked it cause of the wide field it included. Processing wa different than the one I use when taking images with my 130PDS.
