Description

I managed to take 38 subs of this using my 8" reflector and modified DSLR. What with there being a 92.3% illuminated moon nearby, and only 11 good subs, I felt I was mad to even attempt this. But, all things considered, I am really pleased with the result.

Because I did not use SCNR [green] in PixInsight, I have retained a green colour within the nebula. I never know if this is correct or not, but it is pleasant to look at, even so...
