Description

4 nights of exposures in Febr-2021, 51x300sec subs were used to process this WF M42 color image.

The trapez area was taken from this image, https://astrob.in/z6ohnl/0/

It's taken as a piggi-back on my 16" SCT, where a WO FLT-110 F7 refractor and a ZWO asi071MC camera is mounted.

A Baader 2" Optolong L-eNhance filter was also used.

The subs were only calibrated with darks.

My home build observatory is placed in my front yard/in the "red light" pollution zone, have a look here,

Red Zone

Kind regards Niels
