Description

I have been working on three new imaging projects in September, and the collection phase of those has ended due to weather and the coming full moon.

I have completed processing on the first image - a widefield shot of SH2-132 - The Lion Nebula.

This is a very large and very faint emission nebula in Cepheus. This is from an 8.33-hour exposure. The image, its story, and details of the image processing can be seen on a new post on Cosgrove's Cosmos website. Enjoy!
