Description

Positioned my camera for the triangle that contained the nebulas within it although it was a right pain to try and find a star to focus on properly. Definitely in need of a Bahtinov mask for focusing as my eyeballing will fail me one day!

All shots were 120 seconds long using the kit lens at 55 mm at F5.6 at ISO 400, 16 of them.

Taken from my Bortle Class 5 garden in Herne Bay, Kent, UK between 23:59 and 00:31 BST on 30th June and 1st July 2022.

Post processing done in DSS and Photoshop, have attached the TIFF file if anyone wants to have a go themselves.
