Description

Something a little different for me. Captured using HOS (CFHT Palette) - The Crescent Nebula is an emission nebula in the constellation Cygnus, about 5000 light-years away from Earth. It was discovered by William Herschel in 1792.

10 Hours data using TS 254mm RC scope, ASI1600mm Pro with ZWO 36mm narrowband filters.
