Description

My celestial heart...

Eight months ago, when I started this wonderful hobby of astrophotography, I never thought I could produce that kind of image so soon.

Far from perfect but you have to start somewhere...

For HDR, I used:

95 x 180s for nebula
119 x 10s for nebula heart

Total integration time: 5h 4m 50s taken from 2021-11-22 to 11-24.
