Description

With one night before Tropical Storm Hilary hit CA, decided to see what I could accomplish with limited integration time.
Shot in HOO, stacked in APP and processed in PI, using RCAstro tools, GHS, masks and curves
I'm fairly happy with the result given the low integration time. 

Thanks for looking
Clear Skies!
Pete


WR 134 is a variable Wolf-Rayet star located around 6,000 light years away from Earth in the constellation of Cygnus, surrounded by a faint bubble nebula blown by the intense radiation and fast wind from the star. It is five times the radius of the sun, but due to a temperature over 63,000 K it is 400,000 times as luminous as the Sun. [Wikipedia]
