Description

Single night of data with fully illuminated moon from my backyard, first "light" while using the ZWO EAF for the first time on my Newtonian telescope. NGC 2359 is magnificent nebula with WR star, ideal for my focal length with huge O3 emmisions-thus the blue color-that even an OSC camera with narrowband filter can easily capture.

Pre&post in PI! Nothing special about the workflow, used the usual suspect of RC-Astro software for PI and my regular processes. Maybe I could go for more saturation on the colors but I thought that then it would be too much false/unnatural for my taste.
