Description

The Cone and Fox Fur nebulae taken over a couple of nights.  Pretty low in the sky and quite a challenge to get good data in these humid summer nights. 

Most of the frames were dedicated to Ha, to capture the structure revealed by ionised Hydrogen.  The O and S appear to be less interesting bands.

The challenge for me was to know where to how tight a crop to apply. Applied a fairly heavy crop (for me), but not sure I got it right.

Ha  50 x 600
SII 12  x 600
OIII 12 x 600
