Description

What an interesting target.  So beautiful and varied.  This was my first try at Thor's Helmet and I am super impressed with my Sky Watcher Starlux 190mm and Antlia ALP-T dual bandpass filter.  The data was pretty decent, but my processing skills need work.  It took me several attempts to get this to a point that I liked but the last image turned out much better.  I'm looking forward to adding more data and trying again in a year.
