Description

Collected this data over 2 nights since each time it got cloudy. To bad the clouds came every time the SNRWeight was at its highest... It was really hard to get the faint nebula around the object itself with my OSC camera but it did work a bit, I had to process it really carefully and actually didn't do that much. The resulting image should be much more natural. Hopefully I can add some HA data to this data anytime soon. Guiding/tracking on the Mesu-Mount was extremely accurate, stars looking really small which looks great to me.
