Description

The nighttime air in our prairie setting  is getting cool and crisp, producing much better conditions for astrophotography.

I shot this narrowband image of the Heart Nebula (IC 1805) over three nights, Sept. 28, Sept. 30 and Oct. 1.  It consists of 5 hours of Ha and 10 hours of OIII. 

In addition, I will try my hand at rendering this glorious object in SHO over the next few days.
