Description

My first deep sky nebula took me a few nights to learn how to reliably focus my gear, find the right spot in the night sky and power my camera for more than a few hours. I could use data from six nights and got 214 subs á 300s. All were taken with stock photography equipment, a light pollution filter and a guided travel mount from my city backyard.

The images where stacked using APP and processed using Photoshop.
