Description

Imaged in OSC RGB and IR on the night of August 22, 2021. Sky conditions were generally good at my backyard location with average seeing and good transparency.

OSC RGB image:  Imaged with a C8 Evo, ZWO ADC, Baader UV-IR Cut filter, and ZWO ASI224MC. Imaging train was configured to give me ~F/20. Image capture using Firecapture with gain set at 375 and an exposure of 16 ms. Stacking in AutoStakkert3 (best 20% of ~12,000 frames captured over 240 seconds). Color balancing and Wavelet sharpening in Registax6. De-rotated and combined 3 images in Winjupos.

IR image:  Imaged with a C8 Evo, ZWO ADC, Baader IR 685 nm IR pass filter, and ZWO ASI190MM. Imaging train was configured to give me ~F/20.
