Description

I realize this is only a portion of the larger nebula, however having just imaged this with my GT81, I found the most interesting area to image with my C 9.25.  Even though I had lots of integration, it was only done in one night, and I think I battled the sky glow at the lower elevations. I had to do quite a bit of evening out of the nebula in Photoshop, and adjusted colors to match more of my wider field of view with the GT81.  It continues to be apparent that my larger SCT's contrast is lacking, compared to the refractor.  That, and I don't use any filters to enhance the bortle 5 skies where I live.

I may go back and use only those subs captured nearer to the meridian to help with overall contrast.
