Description

This is my first image on astrobin!

I captured this from the end of my driveway in absolutely horrible light conditions (bad light pollution and irritating streetlights in awkward locations).

This is 33 x 119second exposures taken with a duoband Ha/OIII filter to a OSC camera. The filter is the ZWO Duo band with I think is 15nm for Ha and 35nm for OIII. The camera is a ZWO ASI079MC Pro. My mount is an iOptron CEM40 and the telescope is a WO GT81IV with the Flat6III flattener. This makes it effectively 382mm of focal length.

I did the processing in Pixinsight with some slight color tweaks to the final image in Photoshop.
