Description

Object type : planetary nebula
Distance : between 2,000 and 2,500 lightyears

For me, it is allways difficult to shoot this object. With long exposures, the picture is over-exposed, and with less detail. That's why I shoted this nebula this time in the live-stacking mode of the Asiar. Still not a great picture, but much better than all my attemps before. This is the result of a live-stack, 204x10 seconds. I used calibration frames during the live stack.
