Description

The image is obtained from my location in the Italian Alps with an old Soviet ZENIT HELIOS 44M (58mm at f5.6) and a H-Alpha 35nm. filter 
ZWO ASI 183mm camera cooled to -10°C gain 300. Exposures of 60 seconds each (unguided) on a SW EQ6-R PRO equatorial mount.
Sky Bortle 3
No post-processing except for scripts.
Live Stacking acquisition.

Of course this image is far away from the "ASTROBIN WHOW EFFECT" but this is my personal taste and I love so much black and white images, they recall me the past era...
