Description

Narrowband Seagull nebula capture from a Bortle 3 area over 3 days in Dec.2021 and Jan.2022. Over time, I've come to like the turquoise palette, instead of pure blues, and so I've been using warmer tones recently. It was also perfect framing wise with the 400mm scope and the APSC sensor able to capture it in its entirety (although you may say that the full region is much larger, but the area of interest fit the frame perfectly). This represents over 10 hours of combined imaging time across the 3 channels.
