Description

The centre part of NGC 1499 California nebula. My first attempt on it, so I didn't know what to expect from it. It obviousliy doesn't fit into my field of view so I decided for the most interesting part in the centre. As I only use the L-enHance filtre, I seem not be able to distinguish the blue part of the nebula, towards Xi Persei or I just haven't enough integration time with 18 x 300s as ice fog appeard after 18 subframes. I also assume I need a narrowband filter for that.
