Description

I love Dark Nebulae and The Large Molecular Cloud in Taurus has to be one of my favourites. This is a four panel mosaic featuring IC2087, IC2088 and NGC1539. Imaged remotely from Spain with the Epsilon 180ed and full format ZWO ASI2400MC Pro, Roboscopes Pier 5. Exposures were 45 x 300s for each panel. Processed in Pixinsight and Photoshop, this was a real challenge for noise control but to be fair it is  dark stuff in a dark sky so I'll take it for what it is.
Thank for looking
Peter Shah
