Description

9-15-22. When I did the Bubble Nebula, the Brain nebula (and also the cluster M52) were in the FOV.  Here is the Brain nebula (5 hrs 42 mins).  I used an L-Extreme filter.  The crescent portion of the brain nebula did not show itself.... maybe it would prefer an IDAS NBZ or NB3 filter, or maybe just longer exposure time.
