Description

Widefield of the central area of Auriga, taken with a 200mm lens, Canon 60DAW astromodified DSLR on a Star Adventurer from my Bortle 7 backyard. The image is a combination of approximately 4h of H-alpha and 3h RGB data.

There is a huge bunch of beautiful objects in this field, starting with open clusters M38 (top left) and M36 (bottom left). On the right there's the famous Flaming Star nebula (IC405) and more to the center one can find the Tadpoles Nebula (IC410).
