Description

PK164+31.1, also known as Jones-Emberson 1, is a planetary nebula positioned in the celestial Northern Hemisphere, in the discreet Lynx constellation. Its low surface brightness and moderate angular size (six arcminutes, similar to a one euro coin seen from 15 meters distance) make it hard to discern with a telescope, which makes for its relative lack of fame. It is, however, a very attractive target for astrophotography.

The image acquisition was finished about a year ago, and during these two days of processing, it was found that the dim target was worth increasing exposure; because the equipment set had changed, it became very difficult to continue to accumulate; I think I would spend more time shooting it again when I had a chance in the future。

It would be very happy to discuess about this target , please let me know what do you think about it.

Thank you !
