Description

This is my largest image yet, and turned out better than I had hoped.  I wasn't expecting a lot with 3 hours per panel of Oxygen-iii, but surprisingly I was able to pick up faint details within the region.  Hydrogen-alpha was unsurprisingly abundant.  Can't wait to do more projects like this!

I stopped down the Rokinon 135 to f/4 rather than f/2 due to my filters performing less optimally at f/2.
