Description

I loved the image @Robert Shepherd recently posted of LDN 134 and which he called the Dust Phoenix. I decided to give it a try at a much shorter focal length - and as my first dark nebula image. It is an ongoing challenge.  The dust is faint and after almost 15hrs of exposure at F5.5 I had to stretch the data hard for this image and unfortunately it shows in the noise and my attempt at reducing it. I need at least double this time but my dark site time is running out so I thought I'd give it a go at processing anyway.
