Description

This was one of the first images I took with my Sky Watcher Star Adventurer last year. I had originally planned on getting the whole Rho Ophiuci complex but when the first exposure came up on the back of the camera, I got so excited that I forgot to zoom out and check the framing! It’s all been downhill from here! This isn’t what it looked like the first time I processed it. After learning a lot more about post processing, I gave the data another go and got this.
