Description

I have never gone for a really large nebula before. I didn’t know what to expect. I was at a good dark site, guiding was working really well and I got 72, two minute exposers with an f/4 telescope. I was surprised about how faint the nebula appeared in my frames. I had to work harder in post processing to bring it any colors and details. I am thinking 3 minutes plus might have been better. 

It was my first effort with this target so I didn’t expect to get any kind of amazing image, but it’s okay for now.

There is so much to learn with this hobby!!
