Description

I wasn't supposed to upload this photo, but I decided that despite the very limited amount of material, it still looks decent. There was some struggle with noise, especially in the red channel from the SII and amp-glow. Overall, the sulfur channel was the most problematic, lower quality and more noisy than hydrogen, despite a more than 2 times longer total exposure (still too short). Unfortunately, late autumn in Poland is not favorable for astrophotography, and one has to work with what can be captured in short weather windows. Maybe it will be better in January or February.
