Description

The Lion Nebula is quite faint, but 7 hours H-Alpha and 6.5 hours OIII captured with the RASA at f/2 helped a lot to take a deep view into this spectacular nebula! Ten minutes of RGB for the stars were added as well. By the way: there are two "guests" visible in this widefield image: planetary nebula Abell 79 (PN G102.9-02.3) at bottom left and the small, bluish PN G101.5-00.6 (middle right). Hope you like it!
