Description

***** ENG. Another wonderful night from the "Dalai Lama" camping in the Aosta valley. HOO image of the Seagull Nebula, with the (much smaller!) Thors' helmet.  Postprocessing, was a reral nightmare because of a loose adapter, that made different part of the frame out-of-focus in a different way. My magnificent PixInsight Master  @Edoardo Luca Radice (Astroedo) solved each issue. Three hours exposure per channel.

SQM 21,1, Bortle 4-5

***** ITA. Altra bellissima notte dal campeggio "Dalai Lama" in Valle d'Aosta. Immagine HOO della nebulosa "Gabbiano", dove si vede anche la molto più piccola "Elmo di Thor". L'elaborazione sembrava senza speranza. A causa di un raccordo lasco varie parti del frame avevano difetti diversi. Ma il magnifico @Edoardo Luca Radice (Astroedo)ce l'ha fatta anche stavolta! 180 minuti di posa per canale.
