Description

This is my first image using my brand new ZWO ASI2600mm Pro camera. I photographed this object with the ZWO ASIair Pro from my driveway in Perkasie, PA under heavily light polluted area. Bortle scale here is at 5.5. I used my narrowband filters.

I am pretty new with astrophotography and not very experienced but I have been experimenting a lot and getting to know how to get good data. Pictures were processed with PixInsight. Took me a couple of weeks to process it after watching many hours of videos on YouTube.
