IC1396

08-05-13

 

This image is 53 light frames at 120 seconds a piece, 45 dark frames, 35 flat frames, and 40 bias frames. Images stacked in Deep Sky Stacker, and post processing done in Photoshop. Had to do a little burn/dodge to help make the darker regions pop out a bit more as the red from the nebula bled into the darker region. I may revisit this region later on this year.

 

Equipment:

Omni XLT 150 with CG-4 mount

Modded Canon 350D

T-ring and adapter

Intervalometer

Polar Scope for alignment
