Description

I love spider season!
The LMC has so many interesting and unique nebulas to target, and NGC 2070 never gets old. Here I've chosen to feature the lesser seen loop below 2070 and the cute little frog guy below. (NGC 2122)

This is the first tricolour narrowband hit out with the new TOA-35 reducer, and I must say I'm pleased with the performance of this frighteningly expensive piece of glass! This image needs a bit more Ha & S2 data, but I was bored during lockdown, so processed what I had so far.

All shot under a full moon too, aah the joy of narrowband!

Hope you like it.
