Elephant Trunk Nebula (IC1396, HOO)

(Processed in HOO palette, see original version flic.kr/p/2oBDNS1)

 

I captured the Elephant Trunk Nebula in Cepheus. This nebula is a concentration of interstellar gas and dust. The bright rim is the surface of the dark cloud being ionised by the bright blue start HD 206267.

 

Captured with my William Optics FLT 91 and 6AIII 0.8x reducer over a 3h30m session.

ZWO 2600MC Pro camera, Optolong L-Ultimate 2" filter.

Processed with PixInsight in HOO palette + Affinity Photo 2.
