Description

First light from my new remote system in New Mexico!

I framed this close up shot of what I think is the most interesting part of this dusty region with NGC1788 at the center.

This was shot over the course of 13 consecutive clear nights in December 2023.

As for improvements, I wish to add ~10 additional hours of H-alpha data, as I failed to capture the faint hydrogen surrounding the nebula. Only the relatively bright hydrogen is visible in this image.

Thanks for looking and clear skies!
