[font=Verdana]Well another morning rises and I start processing. 100 subs at 3 minutes long each of this iconic object - thus an integration time of 5 hours, using this amazing gear.


Thanks everyone....


Simon



Pier 4 is a ZWO ASI-2066MC Pro OSC, with a Sigma 105mm f/1.4 lens stopped to F/2, an Astromechanics focuser, guided with a ZWO ASI-120 Mini and ZWO Mini guide scope, on an Astro Physics AP900 GTo3 mount. The mount actually runs unguided, so the guide scope is in there only as a backup.

Hi Simon,

Lovely image and so much to see besides ic1396. I notice Sh2-129, B152, B169-71 besides many more.I expect that in the image you have these can all be seen more clearly, It's great that you are back busy editing again, a good sign I hope.

I thought that Ced207 must have been Mr A's (Astronomy) choice. :) Seemed the ideal kind of bizarre object for him to choose. :)  Regarding the possibility that there may be dozens or even hundreds of images of this by others, I haven't seen any, but it could be part of something with a more common name. 

Hope you enjoy this long weekend.
