Description

A "quick and dirty" NGC 281/ Pacman nebula taken in the very few spells of decent weather we've had in December 2020 / January 2021. RGB from the Stowaway using the ASI2600MC and Ha from the 6" Starfire EDF using the Moravian G4.

I tried the EZ Suite in PixInsight to reduce the stars in the HaRGB images. They look nice from afar but it produces some artifacts in the background. Will need to be more careful next time.
