Description

My attempt with IC1396 (the Elephant Trunk Nebula) from my balcony, it was kind of hard to get enough signal for the SII and OIII, resulting in my longer project so far. Perhaps better filters would help to get less artefacts with the brilliant stars and better contrast in general; however, so far quite happy with the final result. Clear skies!
-20°C
SII: 300' x 152 = 12h40'
Ha: 300' x 113 = 9h25'
OIII: 300' x 175 = 14h35'
Total acquisition: 36h40'
