Description

My most recent project has been an up-close-and-personal look at the Propeller Nebula, DWB-111, which is in the constellation Cygnus.  I refined my sky model to get under 5" RMS and worked to get most accurate polar alignment possible to get as good an attempt at unguided at f/10 as I could.

This view gives a nice juxtaposition of the inky black nebulosity that sits dead center of an otherwise reasonably bright wavy hydrogen and sulfur gas formation.  There was nearly non-existent oxygen signal by comparison.

I hope you enjoy!
