Description

First widefield image. Shot Mars-Pleiades conjunction the previous night. Figured I would try to capture all three the following night. Captured 85 mins of the Mars and Pleiades Conjunction along with the California nebula. Shot at a dark sky park, Geauga Observatory, Bortles 4 for this shoot. This is my first attempt at the California nebula.



Stacked and processed with APP using light pollution removal and star calibration tools. Additional small curve adjustments using GIMP.
