Description

I had a hard time getting this image, due to focus and tracking issues ruining most of my data. The stack is only 6 frames out of the 100+ I shot. Luckily, I was able to pull the nebula out of the limited data I had. Processing the data was difficult, but I'm fairly pleased with the result. Thanks for looking!

Integration time: 120s (6x20s lights at ISO 3200)

Imaged on 2/18/18

Stacked in Deep Sky Stacker and processed in StarTools and Luminar.

Equipment:

Celestron NexStar 6SE OTA and mount

Nikon D3300
