Description

A year and half ago, while I was new in astrophotography. I shot this object with HD8. It is not good looking back from now. So I decided to give it another try. I did manage getting data for Ha and O3 after couple of weeks. However I was unable to finish S2 and RGB stars. Every clear night I only got 3-4 hours window. Giving the incorporated weather forecast, I don't think I could finish the project this spring. So here you go, I processed it and put it up. I might add more to it this winter.

Ha: 61x600s

O3: 60x600s

S2: 12x600s
