Description

I took advantage of the first clear nights of the year in early February and collected a total of 19h of capture time. Since I didn't like the result, I took 2 additional nights and here we go.
I must admit, I was a bit naive about this object, how difficult it is to get a nice picture here, I was not aware. Under a Bortle 7 sky and partly with full moon, which are unfortunately not the best conditions, but I got the best out.
I really like this supernova remnant, this will definitely not be the last time I photograph it. This was my biggest project so far, hope you like it!
