Description

My first serious attempt to image this iconic DSO, I hope I've done it justice. After countless reprocessing to correct gradients & bring out background colours, I'm calling this project finished. Total integration was 60 x 180sec & 35 x 300 sec exposures. I couldn't work out how to  add both sets of numbers in the acquisition details. 

I hope you like it & thanks for looking.

Best,

Tony
