SH2-124 (Narrowband 3nm Ha & Oiii only)
SH2-124 is a molecular hydrogen cloud in the north-east Cygnus region, in the same areas as the Cocoon Nebula (flic.kr/p/2pRZo33). It is pretty large emission nebula, but not too bright. The whole area is filled with hydrogen, hence the red hues everywhere.
I captured this on a brief 3 hour session (astronomical darkness is only about 1 hour now in my area), using my William Optics FLT132 with 1.0x flattener (910mm focal length at f6.9). ZWO ASI2600MC Pro camera with Optolong L-Ultimate narrowband 3nm Ha & Oiii filter.
Pre and post processed with PixInsight and Affinity Photo 2.
