Description

My first image of these two nebulae. I forgot to flip the image in Sharpcap so I framed on the wrong side of the flame.

This is 35 lights, 20 darks, 5 flats. Darks and flats were applied in Sharpcap. Exposures were 40 seconds at a gain in Sharpcap of 314.

Stacked in Deep Sky Stacker.

Stretched in Photoshop. Additional processing achieved with AstroFlat Pro.
