Description

This is my first proper deep sky image and I am very happy with how it turned out. I really love the Bok globules that are visible around the edge of the nebula, particularly at the top.

RGB:

2x 4 minute and 13x 5 minute frames at gain 100 (unity) and -25 degrees Celsius.

HaOiii:

30 x 5 minute frames at gain 100 (unity) and -21 degrees Celsius.

Taken with the ZWO HaOiii Duoband filter.
