Description

This is an image of the Dark Shark Nebula taken with a Celestron Edge 14 with F1.95 HyperStar. It is a stack of 48 unguided 5-minute exposures taken with a Zwo ASI2400MC color camera in my backyard at the New Mexico Astronomy Village. This object is so faint that it is hard to compose the image because you can't see what you are framing. The speed of the HyperStar on the C14 fortunately brought out a lot of details.
