Description

My first attempt at astrophotography from the roof top of my home in bortle 2000 Cairo!

Usually I travel to darker skies, but I was stuck at home and unable to sleep becuase of the terrible news of what's happening in Palestine, so I decided to give it a go.
I was surprised by how well the Antlia 5nm Dual Narrowband worked. I decided to over compensate for the terrible sky quality and spent 5 nights imaging this target (well only half a night. I had to wait for the soul nebula to rise above the bright stadium lights nearby).

Really happy with the results and hope you like it.

Clear Skies!
