Description

This image is a wide field capture of part of the core of our own galaxy. We can see several well known objects, same dark nebula patches, extensive regions of Ha and a lot of gas and dust in the interstellar medium.

This image has been acquired with a Canon EF-2 85mm f/1.8 telephoto attached to a CCD ST-8300M. The capture was guided through a TMB92mm and a Lodestar guider afocal to it.

The stack is as follows:

Luminance: 8x300sec

RGB: 5x300sec each

Ha: 10x600sec

All above binned 1x1. The lenses was stopped down to approximately f/5.6 in order to reduce the chromatic aberration.
