Description

Last year after moving my gear to the end of the garden I was, for the first time, able to see and therefore image at least some of the north sky. This classic was one of the first images, though integration is short and therefore a little noisy, it was fun to see and at last image the Elephant's Trunk. I subsequently processed the image in Ha, SHO and HaOO and am posting each as a triptych.
