Description

NGC6823 is a small open cluster located in Vulpecula, surrounded by NGC6820, an emission nebula. This was the second image I've shot with my portable imaging setup (a SW Evolux 82ED with flattener and an iOptron GEM28 mount) as I shake out the bugs and get it ready for travel later in the year. I shot this in narrowband with a mono camera under a Bortle 4 sky in the mountains of Colorado at 8400 feet above sea level.
