Description

Shark Nebula is considered to be a difficult astrophotography target. No hint of the nebula was seen in 3 minute image. As not cataloged in ZWO ASIAir Plus, picked the RA and DEC co-ordinates from Stellarium without any hint of framing the nebula. Later found that I should have included more of the tail of the Shark.  I want to re-visit this target in the near future with a larger sensor camera. Also, plan to use Telescopious.com for better framing.
