Description

The second photo taken with my Orion Optics CT8 f4.5 newtonian telescope it's the Owl nebula in HOORGB.
I had this target on my bucket list for quite a while and a few years ago I've learned that it has a faint Oiii outer shell so I made it my goal was to make it stand out.
For the closer look, I drizzled x2 all of the stacks and cropped them in half before I started editing them.
I hope you like it!
Emil
