Description

I imaged this nebula on 10/1/22 and took 30 light frames at ISO 800 and 300 seconds. Used Williams Optics Redcat 71mm for imaging scope and Williams Optics 50 mm guide scope. No filters were used. Imaging camera was a Canon Ra and guide camera was a ZWO ASI120MC-S. Used light frames, darks and bias frames. Software guiding with PHD2 and APT. I used DSS to stack images and used Photoshop for post processing. The image was not cropped.
