Description

My goal on the Iris and Ghost was to go after the dust without blowing out the Iris Nebula. I'm in between Bortle 4 and 5 and did not know how much dust the WO FLT 91 and QHY268M would be able to capture. I'm very happy with amount of dust captured and with the detail I was able to preserve in the Iris.
