Description

I've been running some tests on my new EdgeHD 9.25 SCT. My goal was to capture several smaller planetary nebulae and see how much detail I could resolve.
This test image of the Bubble Nebula (Sharpless 162, or Caldwell 11) in Cassiopeia is one of my first compositions.

I used the 1600MM camera but I cropped the final image a fair bit and sacrificed pixels for a more pleasing composition.

Description: Original edit was too warm so I tried re-balancing the colour channels a little and playing with highlights for a more traditional SHO 'rainbow' effect and clearer details.
