Description

My first camping trip this year with a single night 6 hours capture of the witch head nebula in widefield, It was a cold night at the desert and the skies seemed to be clear for most part of the night. I was surprised how well it was able to manage the star shapes on this lens at F2.8 with only a UV/IR filter and also the 2x Drizzle really helped with the star sampling for this combination to really bring out the details in this image. I have a few more targets I want to capture for the upcoming camping trips with this same widefield setup  and a few long duration projects I have been shooting from home in narrowband from my B8 sky.
