Description

This is my first time imaging the Crescent Nebula in narrowband. I've always enjoyed the target but didn't appreciate it as much until I saw it in a wider field. The weather this summer has been very poor so all my narrowband images this year have been taken with only Ha and Oiii due to limited clear skies. I've been enjoying the results though.
