Description

Sharpless 71 is a fabulous looking PN located in the constellation Aquila with an intriguing morphology due to the triple star system at its core.

The image is the result of another joint project with my good friend and team mate @Peter Goodhew, to whom I owe a lot of my slowly growing knowledge of deep space photography. We captured the data between 11-24 July 2022 on my Edge14" and on Peters dual rig - all located at E-Eye in Extremadura, Spain.
