Description

This is the Seagull Nebula IC 2177 in SHO. This is a beautiful target, full of details and delicate nebulosity. This image is made up of 20 3-minute exposures for each of the Optolong SHO filters. Processed in Pixinsight and with Blur XTerminator and Noise XTerminator, as well as final touches in Photoshop CC 2022. I captured this from the beautiful region of Monteverde, Costa Rica during the last week of December last year.

I plan on making a mosaic of this region to include Thor's Helmet as well.
