Barnards Loop
A shot 3 years in the taking, One I wanted to take on the Star Adventurer but never could Barnard's Loop. Polar alignment and Guiding where the two biggest problems. This is a Wide field of the Orion area with a Nikon 50mm G F1.8 lens but will try again once I can get my parents Nikon 50mm D F1.8 lens with a manual aperture ring. This was taken over 5 night and dumped a lot of shot as the lens is so wide field the city light made it into the shot, in the end it was start after 9 pm finish 2am. Orion was corrected with 5min and 2 min shots
ZWOASI071MC -10 38 shots each of the 5 nights 10min
Optolong LeNhance filter,
Nikon 50 mm f1.8 G Lens
