Description

I acquired the data for this image while testing my new Pegasus Astro FocusCube 2 focus motor and ZWO tilt adapter. I needed a dense starfield to adjust the spacing of the imaging train, and including M57 was a nice bonus.

The spiral structure inside the Ring Nebula was enhanced with H-alpha data, blended as a luminance layer.
