Description

LDN 1251 in Cepheus. This image is a crop and rotate from the original taken with FMA 180Pro and my unmodded Nikon D7200. Data was collected over 4 nights. The first 2 nights were immediately following the new moon. The second 2 nights were a week later with the first quarter moon shining brightly. This was the first good test of my Optolong L-Quad Enhance Filter. It did a pretty good job with my light pollution and the moon but I probably won't see the full benefits until I mod my Nikon or pick up a color astro camera.
