Description

IC 1805 and 1848 imaged on Halloween during the full moon. I shot this with my modded Canon 600D, Rokinon 135mm f/2, and Skyguider Pro. I used a 2" Optolong L-eNhance filter mounted to the Rokinon with step-down rings. This gives wonky off-axis stars, but otherwise works ok.

This was 231 120-second light frames, guided and dithered in RA via PHD2. Calibrated and stacked in APP, stars removed in Starnet++, and recombined and finished in GIMP.
