The Dolphin Head nebula
More properly known as Sharpless 308, this emission nebula was created by the very hot Wolf-Rayet star EZ Canis Majoris near the centre of the frame when it cast off its outer layers of gas.
The image is an HOO narrowband integration of 22 hours O data and 23 hours of H captured with a QHY163M camera, WO FLT110 telescope and Optolong filters. Imaging was managed via SGP and PHD2. All post-processing was carried out in PixInsight.
Observed from Prachinburi, Thailand
