Description

I captured the right panel from my friend's observatory in NSW - Australia, while I controlled it from Hanoi. The left panel, I use the data he took in 2015. 
Due to my friend's observatory is located in the suburbs of Sydney, it's relatively affected by light pollution (Bortle 5). Therefore, processing mosaic image is a challenge, especially for reflection nebulae and dark nebulae like this.
