Description

It has been a LONG time since I've process and posted any images. Finally, after 1 year and a full replacement from the ground up of my imaging gear I have data to finally process. Attached is an SHO image of Sh2-115 and Sh2-116 shot during our club's bi-annual star party. This emission nebula lies in Cygnus just off Deneb and is about 7500 light years away. The emission nebula is powered by the open cluster Berkley 90. To the lower left is Sh2-116, a planetary nebula also classified as Abell 71 or Pk 85+04.1.

Feels great to be imaging again!
