M27 - Dumbbell Nebula

This is my first composite LRGB deepsky image. I do not have the right equipment to make this kind of photography (for example, I have no guide), but nevertheless last summer I decided to take a shot with a famous and bright object.

 

So, here it is: the Dumbbell Nebula, a planetary nebula in the constellation Vulpecula! Each channel is made of 20 stacked frames, taken with an exp. time of 15 sec. and gain 300.

 

Telescope: Celestron C9.25''@F5

Camera: ZWO ASI 290MM

Filters: Baader LRGB

Filter wheel: ZWO EFW, 8X

 

Captured, stacked (+dark frame) with SharpCap, processed with GIMP
