Default IC405 - Flaming Star Nebula in Auriga

All,

Captured this one last night and even with some thin cloud passing
through it still looks reasonable.

SBIG STL11K (6nm Ha Filter) 253mm f/6 Newtonian and Televue Paracorr
5x1800 second exposures. Median Combined. Levels and Curves in Photoshop.

Might be clear tonight too so I will try and add some more data to this
if possible.


Regards

Bill

Bill,
Exquisite image! I worked hard on this object with my 10in and
finally got to see
a piece of the West side just the other night. Used a UHC and about
100x.

This one's another keeper.

GOOD WORK,
Ben
