Carastro Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 I originally imaged this in June 2021 from home Bortle 8. Was never happy with my original process (and below you can see why). Then after seeing DMack's fine result earlier, it inspired me to go back and have another go at it, and much happier with it now, so thanks for the nudge DMack. Original details: Ha 20 x 600secs on Left and 43 x 600secs on the right.

TerryMcK Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 Nice work Carole. You’ve brought out some good dark contrast and coupled it with great colour rendition. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dmack1 Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 Thats really nice. The even wider field works well. Do you know what the orange patch of nebulosity about 3/4s the way up close to the left side is. I've had a poke around Stellarium but can work it out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I looked on Astrobin - not at my image as it didn;t plate solve it on mine, but on other people's and it is an emission Nebula Sh2-104.
