Description

A wide field image of Sh2-104 which is the bright, round nebula at the center. I had some time between other projects so I decided to do this one. My GT71’s focal length is on the short side needed for this object. The data has been hiding on my hard drive as I had completely forgotten that I had it. This object is seldom imaged but it does make an interesting photo with the nearby nebulae.

The stack is a HaSHO mix that was tone mapped. It only has a limited number of hours on it and would benefit from some more exposure time.

38x300 sec SII

35x300 sec OIII

57x300 sec Ha

Total exposure time of 9.2 hours
