Description

When taking a recent wide-field image of the Deneb region in Cygnus I noticed a fluffy little nebula, "Looks nice" - I thought - "next time I must try and image it with a longer focal length telescope!". So here we are...In the meantime, I found out that the little Nebula is called Sh2-112, it's an emission nebula in Cygnus with a strong H-a signal. I managed to take just 1.5h of total exposure in 300s subs over the last two nights. I also managed to get 1.5h of Oiii but I'm not very happy with the colour image...to be honest, I like the monochrome better!
