Description

My first "real" dark nebula. I actually captured this before - but in a wide field with the Pleiades.

So I was curious to know how it would look like with a bit more focal length.

From light-polluted Belgium, dark nebulae should be a real challenge I guess... I'm happy that at least this one could be captured! On the RAW frames it was almost unvisible. A lot of stretching did the trick!

It could benefit from a larger field of view, so maybe I need to retake this one with the Nikon instead. ALso a bit longer integration time, since noise was really also stretched.

And indeed - I'm still working on a correct distance for the sensor. I ordered an adapter today that would allow me the 55mm between the TSRED379 and the ASI183MM! :-) Clear Skies!
