Description

A classical object. Though, to me it is special, as this is the second time a image this target. The first time was from my backyard in a Bortel 5-6 zone with 16 hours of integration and the same scope. This time I get to image this under really dark skies and with a lot more integration. It makes a big difference to image from a dark place. Also I have had a bit more practise in processing ;-)

Enjoy!
