Description

My first attempt at the Seagull nebula, although I think it looks more like a Phoenix. My son says it looks like Fawkes from the Harry Potter movies.

Final image is a crop because I changed framing after the first night of integration.

Seeing and transparency were abysmal at best on all 3 nights, high cirrus were also present on and off. Wisconsin weather isn’t just not astrophotography friendly, especially in the winter. From lemons .....come lemonade!
