Description

IC1318 - The Butterfly Nebula in Cygnus located near Gamma Cygni (Sadr) which is at the top of the image. This was shot under Bortle 8 skies. I'm not very happy with how noisy it is or the color gradient. I'm sure I'll revisit this target in the future and will take longer subs. I don't think 2 minute subs were enough.
