99 x 300 seconds in HA, 35 x 300 sec. S2. Oiii was too washed out by the Full Moon so I went with HSS palette.
ASI1600MM 7nm ZWO filters on the Radian Raptor @ 275mm.
Taken over 4 nights in the last week, two of those nights I lost over an hour from the dew, even with the heaters on max. This was probably because the scope was pointed at the Zenith the last hour before the flip.

I don't remember ever seeing this one before. I had to look it up to find out it was in Cepheus. Looks like a nice fairly easy target. Very nice image too.
