Description

This target has been on my wish list for a long time but due to its's location low in South, I didn't think it was really possible for me. This year I thought I'll give it a try anyway even though the nightly imaging window is about two hours. Luckily I found a few hours of Ha data from years ago before we moved (taken with an old RC) and which I was further able to use. But even with that, this is the least amount of hours I have gathered for a project since I started imaging and considering that, I'm rather happy how this turned out.
