Description

A total of ~6.5 hours of data on this object from a heavily light-polluted site.

I am finally done with imaging this object for the time being, I will be adding H-alpha data hopefully next year, when its position in the night sky becomes favorable again.

I'm still a beginner at this, but I am quite pleased with the result!

Definitely one of my favorite deep-sky objects!
